Description
This film documents the history and present-day reality of big-business tax avoidance, which has seen multinationals depriving governments of trillions of dollars in tax revenues by harbouring profits in offshore havens. Tax avoidance by the wealthy increases the levels of inequality and places the tax burden on the middle class and the poor. Journalists, tax justice campaigners and former finance and technology insiders speak about the trends that are carrying the world to an unsustainable future.
