A documentary on the history and present-day reality of big-business tax avoidance, which has seen multinationals depriving governments of trillions of dollars in tax revenues by harboring profits in offshore havens.

Plot

The Price We Pay, directed by Harold Crooks, exposes how "offshore" finance and Google, Amazon and the other tech giants of the "cloud" economy are eroding the foundations of the democratic state. The Price We Pay is inspired by Brigitte Alepin's book La Crise fiscale qui vient.
