Innenansichten eines Großkonzerns: Enron steht für den größten Finanzskandal der US-Wirtschaftsgeschichte. Der Energieriese, bei dessen Insolvenz 20.000 Mitarbeiter ihren Job verloren, gründete sein Geschäft auf konsequenter Bilanzfälschung. Schamlos hatten die verantwortlichen Manager sich bis zum letzten Moment persönlich bereichert und unter anderem zwei Milliarden Dollar an Pensionsfonds ihrer Mitarbeiter vernichtet.

Español
Este documental presenta el lado oculto de uno de los mayores escándalos financieros de la historia, en el que varios altos ejecutivos de la séptima empresa más importante de los Estados Unidos se embolsaron más de mil millones de dólares mientras sus accionistas y empleados lo perdían todo. Basada en el best-seller 'The Smartest Guys in the Room' (algo así como 'Los tipos más listos del lugar') de los periodistas de la revista Fortune Bethany McLean y Peter Elkind, la cinta utiliza declaraciones personales y cintas de audio y vídeo de la empresa para mostrar los increíbles excesos cometidos por la cúpula directiva de Enron y el profundo vacío moral que ocultaba la supuesta filosofía corporativa.

Pусский

Magyar
A világ egyik legnagyobb cége, Amerika hetedik legnagyobb vállalata egyik napról a másikra csődbe jut. Hogy-hogy sokáig nem tűnt fel senkinek, hogy nagy baj van a cégnél? Egyáltalán miként sikerült az Enron-nak ilyen hatalmas cégóriássá válnia, az energiaszektor egyik óriásává?

Nederlands
Aan de hand van de bevindingen uit de bestseller "The Smartest Guys in the Room" wordt onderzocht hoe het mogelijk was dat de top van het energiebedrijf Enron miljoenen dollars aan bonussen binnenhaalde, terwijl investeerders en personeel hun zuurverdiende spaargeld in rook zagen opgaan. Uit talloze interviews, persoonlijke nota's van de directie en de tapes van de telefoongesprekken van de Enron-traders komt een gitzwart portret van het Amerikaanse kapitalisme - vol onvoorstelbare persoonlijke excessen en een compleet gebrek aan morele waarden - naar voren...

Zanim pod koniec 2001 roku doszło do upadku Enronu, amerykański gigant energetyczny zatrudniał ok. 22 tysięcy ludzi. W listopadzie 2001 roku ujawniono oszustwa księgowe, które przyczyniły się do zafałszowania wyników spółki. Wcześniej ogłoszono wyniki za III kwartał 2001 roku, potwierdzające olbrzymie straty. W grudniu 2001 roku Enron ogłosił bankructwo, a ceny akcji wynosiły jedynie kilkanaście centów. Według powszechnych opinii było to największe bankructwo w historii USA. Tysiące ludzi z dnia na dzień straciło pracę.

Totally Under ControlDocumentary2020

On January 20th, 2020 the US and South Korea both discovered their first cases of COVID-19. However, 9 months later, the novel Coronavirus has claimed the lives of almost 200,000 Americans and caused staggering economic damage, while in South Korea, there were no significant lockdowns and, in an urbanized population of 51 million, only 344 lives have been lost. Where did we go wrong? As the presidential election nears, Americans are increasingly enraged by a lack of clear leadership, endemic political corruption and left to wonder how did the wealthiest and most powerful country in the world manage to fail so thoroughly in its response to a global pandemic? Academy Award-winning filmmaker Alex Gibney, directing with Ophelia Harutyunyan and Suzanne Hillinger, interrogates this question and its devastating implications in Totally Under Control. With damning testimony from public health officials and hard investigative reporting, Gibney exposes a system-wide collapse caused by a profound dereliction of Presidential leadership. It will be a generation before we know the full extent of the damage wrought by this pandemic, but Totally Under Control will stand as the definitive account of the Trump administration’s incompetence, corruption and denial in the face of this global pandemic.

Using the story of the Red Star Line as a narrative vessel, this three-part documentary by Daniël Cattier and Fabio Wuytack explains why European emigrants left their homes behind for an uncertain future. It details their trips to Antwerp, their travel across the ocean, and their adjustments to their new lives in America. Theirs are intimate yet epic journeys in which past and present merge in the forging of new identities. The film, which is shot on location in Antwerp, New York, Poland, Czech Republic, Hungary, Russia and Ukraine, uses ‘emotional archaeology’ to weave a richer narrative than could be conveyed through a string of facts and figures. And walking in the footsteps of Red Star Line passengers, surprising similarities are revealed to the experiences of modern immigrants.
