Domino : caught in the crisis

Luis, an ordinary individual in Spain caught up in that country's economic crisis, a crisis that began in the United States. As we watch him struggle with unemployment and the threat of foreclosure, we are reminded of the 4 million long-term unemployed in the U.S., the growing gap between rich and poor, and the millions of foreclosures that have occurred since 2008. Luis does all the right things: goes to an unemployment office, checks out the employment listings posted by private firms, checks the newspaper listings, asks friends for a job, accepts whatever part-time work is offered to him...and goes to the bank to apply for a loan.
