After being cleared of further abuse allegations, Jackson attempts an ambitious comeback tour. When he dies suddenly, the people who control his estate start monetising his legacy.
Following Jackson from the shockwaves of the Martin Bashir documentary Living with Michael Jackson to the final act of his life - and the battle over what he leaves behind.
In the aftermath of the documentary, insiders describe a man in free-fall: frightened, financially exposed and increasingly isolated. Manager Dieter Wiesner recalls Michael rallying his fanbase, while rumours of mounting debts and allegations escalate.
