What is Man on the Run about?

“Man on the Run exposes a shocking true story of corruption and betrayal that shook an entire nation’s financial stability. It follows Jho Low, a mysterious businessman, and playboy, as he masterminds a scheme to exploit a sovereign wealth fund in Malaysia, 1MDB. With the collaboration of Prime Minister Najib Razak, Low funnels billions into global bank accounts to fuel his extravagant lifestyle, including Hollywood parties and even financing The Wolf of Wall Street. Director Cassius Michael Kim’s meticulous investigation unravels a web of greed and corruption, revealing the profound impact of this colossal financial scandal.”

Speaking in a Q+A regarding the film via Evergreen Media and The Smoking Section, Kim discussed his reasons for making Man on the Run and what sparked his interest in the subject matter. 

“My generation, and those younger than me, have been lied to our entire lives. Whether it’s the false promise of trickle-down economics, or of a society based on meritocracy, where hard work equals just rewards. We see through the lies told by those who have to those who have not. When a story like this comes along, where so many of the guilty have not been held to account or brought to justice; where, despite abundant coverage of this story on some of the largest platforms of the world, the average person on the street has no idea what 1MDB stands for or represents. How could you not want to tell this story? Anyone with the slightest interest in justice and accountability should want to shed a light on what happened, and more importantly, what hasn’t happened.”
