Concept:
As an armored luxury car salesman, Fidelis Cloer has made a fortune from America's war in Iraq. This documentary examines how this successful German war profiteer earns money when violence increases and soldiers' lives are threatened. A dedicated capitalist who roots for the escalation of the war, Cloer predicted correctly that the situation in Iraq would deteriorate and provide opportunities for him to get rich.
Pros:
- An interesting look into a world that I know nothing about
- I learned a lot of things about armored cars
- You will want to own a armored car after seeing this film

My Thoughts:
I thought is movie was cool. I was amazed at how calm, cool and collect the car sales man was and I was interested in how some facts about car salesmenship stayed the same, no matter what country the car was being sold in. I was also moved at how much the car salesman believed in his product.
