Available for over a year

A tragic accident throws Fiat’s succession plan into crisis, and sparks a bitter custody battle that tears the Agnelli family apart. As Fiat’s founder, Giovanni Agnelli, is forced to look at other potential heirs to his throne, one likely candidate emerges – a grandson. But with war looming over Europe, it’s not clear whether he, or the business, will survive.
