Plot

A bank chairman fights to hold on to his job.

Sinekatalog’s take

Costa-Gavras's thriller follows a bank chairman's rise and ruthless manoeuvring in a world of finance. Gad Elmaleh is slick, and the film's sharp, cynical view of greed and power makes a brisk if familiar satire.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
