When he is sent to Singapore by the 200-year-old Barings Bank, futures trader Nick Leeson (McGregor) dreams of making a killing in the stock market. But even though his firm believes Nick is the most successful trader they've ever employed, he secretly begins to steal vast amounts of their own money to cover his risky financial wagering! With debts to match his desperation for a way out - Nick risks everything in a frantic bid to beat the system and win back the money! (official distributor synopsis)
