A team of journalists uncover massive fraud at a successful payment firm.
Why watch this film?
Upstart payment firm Wirecard wowed the financial industry with its runaway success — until a tenacious team of journalists exposed massive fraud.
"'Skandal! Bringing Down Wirecard' is an intriguing documentary that explores one of the biggest financial crimes of modern times. During the government's investigations, little was revealed about the details that made up the fraud committed by the directors of the digital payments company Wirecard, which had a tremendous success. This feature film reveals all the details through a nearly six-year investigation conducted by Financial Times journalist Dan McCrum. A scandal involving the mafia, adult entertainment moguls and even Russian intelligence agencies."
