Dare to Dream: A Story From El Salvador (DVD)

Our story starts over a decade ago in a tiny village on the coast of El Salvador. When faced with the tough decision of leaving their poverty stricken violent country in search of a brighter future, two youngsters decided to buck the trend. They would stay, standing up to the challenges of their land with the dream of building a better future for their own community. Years of efforts bringing education and opportunity to the local children led to an even bigger dream with the help of an anonymous bitcoin donor: to create a local bitcoin economy built around a vision of financial inclusion. Its success would inspire El Salvador to become the first country in the world to adopt bitcoin as legal tender, sending shockwaves around the world.
