L'Outsider plot
2008. The world economy is hit by its worst crisis since 1929. Only one man, a young trader, is allegedly responsible for the first and most extravagant in a series of scandals that will hit the financial markets around the world: Jérôme Kerviel. The biggest loss of a bank in history (nearly 5 billion euros) is discovered at the French bank Société Générale and soon attributed to the quiet, 31-year-old employee. He was hired 8 years earlier as a simple bank clerk but no one could have predicted that Jérôme would go so far so quickly. He became the star of the trading floor and was known by his colleagues as 'the cash machine'.
