ABACUS small enough to jail
Tuesday, February 13, 2018 Screening will begin at 7:00 p.m. at the Museum of Tolerance Academy Award™ Nominee Best Documentary Feature
Abacus: Small Enough to Jail tells the incredible saga of the Chinese immigrant Sung family, owners of Abacus Federal Savings of Chinatown, New York. Accused of mortgage fraud by Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus R. Vance, Jr., Abacus becomes the only U.S. bank to face criminal charges in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis. The indictment and subsequent trial forces the Sung family to defend themselves and their banks legacy in the Chinatown community over the course of a five-year legal battle.
Conversation with filmmakers to follow, moderated by Jeff Goldsmith, Publisher of Backstory Magazine
