The 2008 financial crisis is treated in reference and academic sources as a major U.S. and global banking and housing-market collapse with a multi-year timeline of buildup and failure. Multiple documentaries and news programs have framed the 2008 crisis as having an “untold story,” including accounts tied to short-sellers and the events popularized as the real-life Big Short.
