Synopsis
CASINO JACK AND THE UNITED STATES OF MONEY chronicles Washington
super lobbyist Jack Abramoff from his early years as a gung-ho
member of the GOP political machine, to his final showdown as a
disgraced, imprisoned outsider and confirms the saying that truth is
indeed stranger than fiction.
A tale of international intrigue that includes Indian casinos,
Russian spies, Chinese sweatshops and a mob-style killing in Miami,
this is the story of the way money corrupts our political process.
From Oscar-winning filmmaker Alex Gibney (TAXI TO THE DARK SIDE) who
highlights US politicians' desperate need to get elected, and the
millions of dollars it costs.
