A Gut-Wrenching View of Hyperinflation

Victoria, one of the students in my "Developing World" class, a few weeks ago shared her family's experiences with hyperinflation in Zimbabwe. This short segment (referred by student Matt M.), documents the rapidly worsening situation of the collapse of the Zimbabwean currency. Sam Chakaipa, a native Zimbabwean, recently returned to his home village and documented the dire situation, where currently only gold is accepted for exchange of goods. The film appears to have been picked up by The Guardian.
