Fritz Gets Rich 2006 dir. Eddie White, James Calvert (12 mins)

"When Fritz's first tooth falls out he wakes to find a shiny one-dollar coin beside his bed. Fritz's first encounter with money ignites his entrepreneurial spirit, and from that moment on everything changes. He quickly spirals into a life of dark and twisted moneymaking ventures, where nothing is safe from being sold: even his own emotions. Fritz is a darkly comic cautionary tale warning of the dangers of consumerism and entrepreneurial greed." Screen Australia
