Based on the true story of how Facebook was formed by Mark Zuckerberg in his college dorm, the film depicts the beginnings of what later became the world’s biggest social media platform and one of the richest companies in the world. It's perhaps the film that first depicted tech entrepreneurs as rock stars, and the portrayal isn't too far-off the m...
Without giving too much away, the title already suggests that the film is about investment banking and the dark side to the stock market. The intelligent film follows an investment banker dealing with initial public offerings who is thrown into Wall Street’s world of betrayal and backstabbing. But at least in Equity, the plot attempts to expose the...
Another money crime film, The Laundromattackles money laundering and shell companies by retelling the true story of Mossack Fonseca and the Panama Papers, the international scandal that leaked the offshore accounts of thousands of politicians, public officials, and billionaires. The story is told in parts, similar to how the Panama Papers exposed t...
Blending genres of financial crime and thriller, Uncut Gems explores the shady side of wealth and debt, featuring loan sharks, jewelry thefts, and sports bets. Although it’s not quite as intelligent The Laundromat or as obvious asThe Wolf on Wall Street—both of which explore how to (illegally) get rich—Uncut Gemsreveals the lengths people will go t...
At first glance, this is hardly a film about business. There are no businessmen, suits, or calculators around. But a closer look will reveal how The Platformis a huge, if obvious, allegory about the (lethal) pitfalls of capitalism—offering a raw, if gruesome, look at the reality of it all. The film exposes society's class structure, perpetuated by ...
TV series Billionsfeatures the true story of U.S. attorney Preet Bharara, a relentless federal prosecutor responsible for putting hundreds of Wall Street brokers behind bars for insider trading, market manipulation, and securities fraud. By all means, Bharara is a heroic, underrated figure in modern history, but for his work exposing the sharks of ...
You can’t talk about money without recognizing all the dirty money that exists behind the scenes. Narcosfollows the empire built by the late drug kingpin Pablo Escobar, a Colombian druglord who made his riches off of cocaine and organized crime. He was perhaps Latin America's greatest and most corrupt billionaire, and we all know how that turned ou...
The British version of Narcos, Peaky Blinders dives into the post-World War I world of Great Britain through the eyes of urban gangsters. The show explores the realities of factory workers, exploitation, and labor rights in this age, as well as the ruthlessness of the 20th centuries first millionaires. Coupled with all the grime and cursing of Birm...
Technically, a series about stealing money is still about money. All jokes aside, the popular Netflix series has been said to be another obvious allegory against late stage capitalism reflecting the masses’ exhaustion for banks and politics, especially since the film is set after the financial crisis of 2007 to 2008. For all its humor and exciting ...

- The show initially had a disappointing audience debut. Before entering the Netflix catalog, 'La casa de papel' was broadcast on Spanish channel Antena 3.
- Its outfits are now associated with protest movements... Like many countries, the 2008 financial crisis traumatised Spain and forced the state to inject billions of euros into the country's banks.
- And real-life heists. In December 2020, a group of hooded men robbed a bank in Cruciúma, in southern Brazil, using a modus operandi similar to that of 'La Casa de papel'.
- A tale of many cities. In the series, all the robbers identify themselves by city names. The idea began with a T-shirt worn by series creator Alex Piña with the word 'Tokyo' written on it.
