This documentary series tells the story of the rise, fall and rebirth of a handful of businessmen, those who control Russian oil and gas, whose brutality, greed and thirst for power know no bounds. Through the fates of these oligarchs, this international investigation deciphers an omnipotent and lawless economic system, shows how it reproduces itself like a tentacled octopus and adapts in order to survive the upheavals of History. By making the colossal financial windfall of black gold available to the master of the Kremlin, the oligarchs, with the complicity of their Western associates, served Putin's great ambition: to infiltrate, corrupt and dominate the West to reconstitute an Empire, that of Holy Russia.

The long, cold winter has just hit New England, and while the bluefin tuna season has come to an end in Gloucester, Mass., it’s just getting started in the Outer Banks of North Carolina. After a disappointing season, several of Gloucester’s top fishermen head south to try to salvage their finances by fishing for the elusive bluefin tuna in unfamiliar Carolina waters before the experienced locals beat them to the catch. It’s a whole new battlefield and the Northern captains must conquer new styles of fishing, treacherous waters and the wrath of the Outer Banks’ top fishermen. They’re gambling on what could be a massive payday … or a huge financial loss.
