Honolulu, February 1986: Ferdinand and Imelda Marcos land with about three hundred crates, boxes and suitcases that US Customs takes ten days to count.
This documentary follows the Marcos fortune from Ferdinand's 1965 inauguration to the Swiss accounts opened under the names William Saunders and Jane Ryan, the 1986 flight to Hawaii, the forfeiture rulings of 2003 and 2017, her acquittal in New York in 1990 and the reversal of her 2018 Manila conviction, and the jewels that still sit in a Manila vault while the family's son holds the presidency. A history of money, power and the courts that could never finish with it. Wealth figures are the PCGG's and the courts' estimates, and every acquittal and reversal is said.
