Just another day in the EU

Politics is a subject I spend very little time on, even when it's about my own country, Greece. Despite that, I found this documentary interesting and well done.

It deals with the European Union's (EU) and European Central Bank's (ECB) role in the economic crises of Italy, Ireland, Cyprus and Greece. It will probably appeal to people related to those countries or people generally interested in European politics and economics.

Narration is in Greek, it has a good production value and features interviews with prominent people.

My main criticism would be that while it does a good job narrating the details of how things happened, it doesn't concern itself with the bigger picture. Why are these things happening ? Obviously that's more speculative and editorial in nature, but I think it would be useful to know the creator's views on the reasons behind these events.
