✦ Synopsis

On the surface, an innocent enough piece of gossip journalism about one of the world's richest men. However, at the end of the 20th century, it appears we are returning to a situation where Empires are dominating the world. Now it is the multinational companies and their owners that have replaced the Kings and Emperors of the last century. The owners and their families have become the new β€˜Royal’ families, and we are mesmerised and entertained with reports of their various romantic and other shenanigans, usually by newspapers or TV stations owned by their competitor moguls.
