'Inside Job' er den første film der giver et gennemgribende analyse af den globale finanskrise der ramte i 2008, og som menes at have kostet samfundet over $20 trilliarder. Finanskrisen forårsagede at millioner mistede deres arbejde og hjem. Det er den værste depression siden 1920'erne, og resulterede næsten i et globalt kollaps. Igennem grundig research og interviews med ledende finansielle specialister og højtstående politikere, journalister og andre med insider-viden gennemgår filmen råddenskaben i de højeste kredse, med korrupte politikere og CEOs. 'Inside Job' er et skræmmende portræt af vores finansielle situation og af de magthavere der styrer det til egen fordel, lavet af den Oscar-vindende dokumentarist Charles Ferguson (No End In Sight). Filmen modtog en Oscar for Bedste dokumentar.
