TV-14Synopsis
Dirty Money (2018), Season 1 is a Netflix documentary series you can watch online on iFILM — six episodes, each a self-contained investigation into corporate greed.
The first season takes apart six real scandals. Volkswagen rigging its diesel emissions tests for years. Race-car driver Scott Tucker's payday-loan empire, built on the backs of broke borrowers. Drugmaker Valeant, whose dizzying growth turned out to be a mirage. Banking giant HSBC and its ties to Mexican cartels. A brazen raid on Canada's strategic maple syrup reserve. And a closing hour on Donald Trump's record as a businessman. Each case is unpacked through documents, insiders, and the people who first sensed something was wrong.
Alex Gibney is among the producers, and the house style shows: facts over outrage, the scheme laid out step by step. It's for viewers who want long-form reporting rather than straight true crime. Stream Dirty Money Season 1 online on iFILM.
