Massive pollution, labor exploitation, corruption, privatization of public land and the destruction of marine ecosystems, a two-part, 45-minute investigation into this secretive and extremely powerful industry, which welcomes 30 million passengers each year and generates $75 billion in revenue.
From corporate headquarters in Miami to the power circles of Washington, D.C., and across the Caribbean, Europe, and Asia, this documentary thriller traces the hidden networks where law firms, exotic flags, and offshore companies intertwine in a meticulously orchestrated web. While passengers disembark in the Caribbean or Northern Europe, workers speak out about grueling schedules and constant pressure, and experts reveal the extent of the environmental impacts caused by major cruise lines—a lucrative and rapidly growing industry.
