a fraud

A huge fraud and its pieces. A case explored in fair manner, presenting the vulnerability of people and a bigger to bigger spider web and the price of arrogance, superficiality and greed.Well crafted story, beautiful performances, precise - clear message and a case explained in its deep consequences , victims being the simple investers who trust investition found.Not exactly a Canadian case but smart portrait of human vulnerability front to generous occasion of wealth.In short, a film for reflect about high price of easy succes and the heavy compromises as forms of profound coruption. And, sure, a film about fear and forms of adultescence.Well done.

Lives unaccounted for

From secret meetups and deals this story kicks off right from the start capturing the essential eagerness. Norbourg is yet another reminder that money managing and bookkeeping doesn't reflect the true impact financial dealings has on lives of stakeholders. The charisma of the ring leader and timid cunningness of shady second in command is very well enacted. Visuals of truth being shredded and false information being fed into systems and bureaucracies is excellent with lavishness of parties and luxury homes portraying why fraudsters do what they. A well written story that's certainly enjoyable.
