Synopsis

According to the film maker, the film deals with neoliberal economics in the Balkans, and the sequel continues where the The Weight of Chains ended, covering the period from 2000. to the present.

The film also discusses the effects of reforms on all aspects of life in the former Yugoslavia, from politics, economics, military, culture and education to the media. "Through stories of stolen and sold off companies, corrupt politicians, fictional tribunals, destructive foreign investors and various economic-military alliances, the new film deconstructs modern myths about everything we've been told will bring us a better live", Malagurski told Tanjug.

In "The Weight of Chains 2", the film maker talks about how a 'shock-economy' based on the Washington Consensus led many countries, to the edge of existence. Malagurski provides, what he describes as, evidence of this in Serbia, but also examples in Argentina and Iceland which confronted what Malagurski describes as the "neoliberal dictate" and, as a result, are better off today.
