Bonsai -Celebrating the Vision of Muhammad Yunus from micro-credit to social business. What if you could harness the power of the free market to solve the problems of poverty, hunger, and inequality? To some, it sounds impossible. But Nobel Peace Prize winner Muhammad Yunus is doing exactly that. Yunus did his part to fight poverty by micro-lending $27 to 42 women, an effort which has now grown to 8 million women and 8 billion dollars. But he didn't stop there; whenever he sees a problem he starts a social business - showing the world that complex problems sometimes do have simple answers. It's not about handouts, it's about a hand up.

| AALBC.comKam WilliamsA moving tribute to a true visionary with a viable plan to alleviate suffering. |
| Film Journal InternationalDavid NohOne man's address of worldwide poverty makes for compelling viewing in Holly Mosher's deeply humane and inspiring, if somewhat simplistic, documentary. |
| Film ThreatMark BellA documentary like this is something you watch in a classroom and have an in-depth discussion about afterwards... |
| NYC Movie GuruAvi OfferInspirational and uplifting. It will make you stand up and cheer. |
| New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisThe result is a movie that feels more like a free-market sales pitch than like a critical look at one weapon in the poverty-fighting arsenal that may or may not offer long-term hope. |
| Playback:stlSarah Boslaugh...presents such a glowing advertisement for Yunus and the work of the Grameen Bank that you expect to see him sporting a halo and playing a harp. |
| Slant MagazineChuck BowenIn the end, it feels unavoidably dull, as there isn't much thematic ambiguity to be found in the assertion that humans deserve life that's defined by more than indentured servitude. |
| New York PostV.A. MusettoYunus would seem to be a prime candidate for a movie about his work. Unfortunately, director Holly Mosher's by-the-numbers documentary Bonsai People isn't the answer. |
| User ReviewSylvie RYunus' vision is truly extraordinary. This film beautifully captures his astonishing work (and struggles) while showing us the path to end poverty and bring about justice. A film everyone should see! |
| User ReviewRaheem PThis was an absolute treat to watch. Holly has vast knowledge of the industry, and uses her background to probe the interviewees with the right questions. With the heavy amount of criticism that the Microfinance industry has been receiving, it is imperative that these viewpoints are acknowledged. |
