A whirlwind of ruthless ambition, power struggles, greed and deception ensues as Tourneuil\u2019s brutal ascent is jeopardized by a hostile takeover attempt from a large American hedge fund led by Dittmar Rigule (Gabriel Byrne, Vikings, In Treatment), erotic distractions from international supermodel Nassim (Liya Kebede), and adversaries with an agenda for destruction. Capital is a pointed commentary on how the Darwinian world of contemporary capitalism plays itself out across the global financial stage. Based on the book Le Capital by St\u00e9phane Osmont, the film is directed by Costa-Gavras and written by Costa-Gavras, Jean-Claude Grumberg and Karim Boukercha. The film also stars Natacha Regnier and Celine Sallette.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"https:\/\/cohenmedia.net\/product\/capital\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Watch now<\/a><\/h3>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>CAPITAL | 2013 &#8211; 114&#8242; &#8211; Drama \/ Thriller &#8211; Written\u00a0by\u00a0Costa Gavras, Jean-Claude Grumberg, Karim Boukercha.
