From the collapse of its pension funds to the decline of its modern cinema, Kerr examines the complex issues facing this country.

His account is both informative and engaging, providing a unique perspective on a nation in crisis. Kerr's work is driven by his desire to share the story with others, as he believes that "passion" is an essential part of the narrative.
