Based on true events around the journalist collective DOSSIER, Calle Fuhr leads us into the machinations of the environmentally destructive corporation (OMV), which uses taxpayers’ money to support corruption, washes its hands of the matter by subsidizing high cultural institutions, and undermines the freedom of press through targeted advertising policies and bullying.
