IKEA’s Enemy No. 1
IKEA expanded by leaps and bounds across post-Soviet Russia, but when one local contractor seemed too expensive, the furniture giant just told him to get lost. The Russian contractor sued, and IKEA ended up paying him a billion dollars. When he claimed he was owed another billion, he was arrested by the Russian security police. He insists his arrest was ordered by IKEA and has been in prison ever since. His extraordinary claims might sound far-fetched, were it not for the evidence uncovered in this real-life thriller, witnesses speaking out, a string of suspicious deaths, and even the filmmaker himself arrested while filming in Russia.
