Waaaay more focused on journalists than the tax evasion system... and a little doses of propaganda, of course

I followed the topic since it came to light, and all that I can say is that this documental let me down strongly.

I mean, there is A LOT of material to talk about in this documental (from now on TPP)... but no, instead of focusing on the tax evasion problem, in TPP you can see how journalists collect-organize-clasifiy-publish information. In general, that's it.

Also, TPP is too partial. I can give you two facts, two examples that you can check using your own means: Fact 1: TPP devote quite amount of minutes on Vladimir Putin (Russia's President)... but Putin isn't holder of an offshore account! Fact 2: Mauricio Macri (Argentina's President) appeared in The Panamá Papers as the holder of two offshore accounts (Kagemusha S. A. and Fleg Trading Ltd.)... but TPP barely mention him. 20 seconds at most.

TPP tries to explain that the whisteblower who leaked the documents (that's how the journalists get the information, by the way... they didn't did the dirty job) just did a tiny piece of the work basically.

Very disappointing documental.
