Escape from Affluenza

Document Actions
A film about reducing consumption and simplifying your life. Featuring the surrender of the infamous Jones family, the one we've all been trying to keep up with for years! What is Affluenza? A common dysfunctional relationship with money, wealth, things, and the pursuit of them that makes us feel empty and frustrated. Symptoms: Swollen expectations, hypercommercialism, shopping fever, a rash of bankruptcies, fractured families, chronic stress, social scars, and resource exhaustion. Cure: Join us to watch "Escape from Affluenza," a film that tells the stories of how people can overcome their need to relentlessly pursue material things and feel better about themselves for it. We will also diagnose you: Do you have Affluenza?, as well as give you ideas of how you can avoid Affluenza this holiday season. Admission: Free!!!!!!
