A Maynard-család, apa, anya és három örökbefogadott gyermekük boldogan tengetik a milliárdosok gondtalan életét. Amon, a családfő imád vadászni. Állatok helyett azonban járókelőkre lövöldözik legszívesebben, mivel a család hatalmi státusza, valamint az elképesztő vagyon mentesíti őket a következmények alól. Egy oknyomozó újságíró azonban túl messzire merészkedik és Amon szorult helyzetbe kerül, így már nemcsak az éppen épülő gigantikus akkumulátorgyár okoz dilemmát az oligarcha számára. (Magyarhangya)

A razor-sharp satire that dives straight into the golden, unrestrained lives of the ultra-wealthy, Veni Vidi Vici captures the disarming power of big money in today’s world. It’s bizarre, absurd, shocking, and somehow completely true to life in its portrayal of a clan so powerful that they operate entirely beyond the reach of ethics or rules. The film blends dark humor with hard-hitting drama and a knack for sharp, pointed irony. What do these predators’ lives look like behind closed doors? How do they act towards each other, what does "territory” mean to them, and how do they view the “others” who happen to share their world? We watch how they approach challenges, what they find trivial, and how they go about grooming the next generation to carry on the legacy. And at the heart of it all, we feel the impact of their unchecked power on everyone within reach, reflecting on how each person’s proximity to the power hierarchy shapes their values and decisions. How do we perceive oligarchs in real life? This film invites us to explore that question.The cinematography, editing, set design, overall aesthetic, and cast (including a standout performance by the brilliantly bratty Julie) are all spot-on here. The unsettling sound design, pacing, and perfectly balanced runtime pull everything together beautifully. The film’s bright daylight and vivid colors suit it perfectly. I couldn’t find a single thing that felt out of place. And for anyone who feels this is all exaggerated, it’s worth noting that the film’s creators have deep ties to this world. They have long been studying the lives of the super-rich and have unparalleled access to their lives. The elite let these filmmakers roam their mansions, loan them jets, share their secrets, and discuss their own “tricks of the trade”—all under the assumption that they remain untouchable. The directors also worked on Davos, a documentary contrasting the normalcy of a Swiss town with the surreal week it’s overrun by billionaires plotting the future. And Daniel Hoesl’s Winwin further examines the super-rich buying up the world.
