The Black Box of the Art Business (2018)

In Switzerland, covering an area of 120,000 square meters, Geneva freeport shelters tens of billions of Euros of merchandise. A tax free area where the world's wealthiest, speculators, collectors and art dealers store exceptional wines, diamonds, and especially works of art, in the greatest secrecy. A secrecy that can allow questionable financial operations. At a time when the secrecy of Swiss banking is under international pressure, art is the new shelter of hidden international finance.

Let's investigate the most secret vault in the world.
