"Today, it is not the mafias that are looking for banks, but the banks that are looking for mafias"... These terrible words are not those of an agitated activist. On the contrary, they come from the mouth of a very calm senior international official.
Antonio Maria Costa, former head of the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime, had already stunned his world by stating in 2009 that money from crime had saved some banks from the financial crisis. This terrible observation speaks volumes about the contamination of the economy by dirty money, that of crime and major international trafficking.
Never have the mafias been so rich and powerful. They are the dark side of globalization, on which they have relied to accumulate unsuspected masses of money. The financialization of the economy is the second pillar of their development. It has allowed large cr!m!n€ll€ organizations to recycle these mountains of black money and make them major players in the functioning of the economy.
In the safes of tax havens, as in the sphere of financial transactions, cr!m€ money mixes with that of corruption and tax evasion. Contributing to the construction of a gigantic gray area, with the complicity of a whole bunch of very "honorable" people: lawyers, bankers, audit firms, experts of all kinds, elected officials of all stripes...
This film is a journey to the kingdom of dirty money. From Calabria to London, from Switzerland to Germany, we set off on the trail of this money that we do not see and do not talk about. For more than ten years, all energies seem to be focused on the fight against t€rror!sm€. While another geopolitics is emerging, perhaps the great challenge of the 21st century. Because a question arises for us: is it not too late? ... Hasn't dirty money become indispensable to the progress of the world?
