FRONTLINE VIRTUAL EVENT

“Pandora Papers”

Thursday,  Nov. 18 at

3:30 p.m. ET /12:30 p.m. PT

Join FRONTLINE Nov. 18 for a virtual event and Q&A with the team behind the FRONTLINE documentary Pandora Papers. The project is part of a worldwide initiative with the International Consortium of Investigative Journalists (ICIJ) that draws on a trove of nearly 12 million confidential financial documents.

For close to two years, ICIJ has led an investigation into these documents with more than 600 journalists from 150 media organizations, including FRONTLINE. The investigation reveals the hidden assets and secret deals of some of the world’s wealthiest and most powerful people, including more than 130 billionaires, 35 country leaders and some 300 other politicians and public officials.

On Nov. 18, FRONTLINE’s executive producer, Raney Aronson-Rath, will lead a conversation with the documentary’s Emmy Award-winning producer, Evan Williams, and reporters from ICIJ and The Washington Post  to discuss the global entanglement of political power, secretive offshore finance and how U.S. trusts are sheltering millions in controversial assets.

 FEATURED SPEAKERS:

  • Evan Williams: Producer, Pandora Papers
  • Debbie Cenziper: Reporter, The Washington Post
  • Will Fitzgibbon: Senior Reporter, International Consortium of Investigative Journalists
  • Greg Miller: Reporter, The Washington Post
  • Philip Bennett: Special Projects Editor, FRONTLINE (moderator)
