Power is the best alibi.

DramaThriller

A troubled hedge fund magnate, desperate to complete the sale of his trading empire, makes an error that forces him to turn to an unlikely person for help.

VIBE

This is a taut, anxious corporate thriller that pulls you into a world of high-stakes deception and moral decay. It feels sleek yet suffocating, exploring the precarious balance of power and the crushing weight of consequences when a meticulously crafted facade begins to crumble under pressure.
