This film asks as many questions as it answers about the masculine role and about the view that holds that the man should be breadwinner, provider, doer, and represenative of the family to the outside world. Points out that heritage and conditioning die hard. The men portrayed in the film who have decided to be true to their own individuality, rather than to the old male stereotype, struggle to define their new selves. Filmmaker, Christian Blackwood

Milton Friedman, in the ninth segment of the series, discusses his money theories based on principles he believes worked in the past and would work now. He describes objects that have been used for money and visits a ghost town to help explain what money is and how changes in its supply can cause problems. Friedman insists that the cure to inflation is like the cure for alcoholism: It takes courage and it may hurt, but it is worth it

Milton Friedman, in the sixth segment of the series, deals with three basic questions: Just how bad is the public education system? Why are public schools in such a deplorable state? What's the solution? Friedman uses scenes from schools throughout the United States to demonstrate his belief that lack of freedom of choice in education, due to lack of competition in the education marketplace, creates unequal educational opportunities in the United States
