McMafia

Inspired by the insider interviews in Misha Glenny’s bestselling book, writer/directors Hossein Amini and James Watkins have created a drama that exposes the global network of organised crime. McMafia unravels a complex web of connections that joins up money launderers in Dubai, cyber criminals in India, Russian oligarchs in London and Bedouin smugglers in the Negev desert. What starts out as a story of survival and revenge becomes a tale of one man’s struggle against the lures of corruption. (BBC)
