Transcript
00:00Over the past decade, our society's been gripped in a vicious generation war.
00:05They're older than, like, color television.
00:07The kids are wearing, have long hair, and they're having premarital sex.
00:10They don't understand what matters for younger generations.
00:14And they spend all their money on avocado toast.
00:18The consequences of what some have called an intergenerational theft
00:22have become harder to ignore.
00:24Rent has just skyrocketed.
00:26Financial crisis.
00:28I'm going to college soon. This is so much more expensive than it was back then.

00:35And how much has just been coincidental to the times in which they live?
00:49What do you know about the film that I'm making?
00:51I've got absolutely no idea what your career is, Tom.
00:59This isn't a plot by the baby boomers.
01:04Well, one cohort is looking at one economy, the asset economy,
01:07and think, well, actually, I'm wealthier.
01:08The other one is looking at the wage economy,
01:10and they're thinking, I'm doing disastrously.
01:13We need to take a closer look at what divides the baby boomers from the rest of us.
01:18I feel like being 18, back when they were 18, is a lot different.
01:21What kind of world do you want your child to live in?
01:26Do you feel like your generation has left the world better than you found it?
01:30I'm not actually feeling I've left it yet, Tom.
01:32Sorry.
