THE LAUNDROMAT (2019)

Written By: Scott Z. Burns 
Based on the Book “Secrecy World: Inside The Panama Papers Investigation Of Illicit Money Networks and The Global Elite” By: Jake Bernstein

A widow investigates an insurance fraud, chasing leads to a pair of Panama City law partners exploiting the world's financial system. It feels like this films almost a lesson with dramatization added. Based on the Panama papers. It seems like Meryl Streep is the audience surrogate in a buerocratic international video game. Where through her experience we learn all about this situation really about fraud and international banking.
