The surging cost of necessities has led to a national belt-tightening among consumers.

NVDL: The US movie preview releases soon in South Africa and the rest of the world, before each country will be able to film CONTRACTION on location locally. CONTRACTION is a term that means the opposite of growth. Basically human beings have believed that infinite growth is not only possible, they felt entitled to it. Each person felt entitled to their own house, their own car, and their own job. Then they wanted their own personal phone, TV set and everything else. They forgot to found out if the world had enough stuff in it to provide 7 billion individuals with everything they thought they wanted. I think they forgot that there are also other animals in the world, and like it or not, human beings (and their beliefs) are also influenced by universal laws, for example gravity, despite - or in spite of - our infinite beliefs.
