Synopsis

Thanks to Jérôme Kerviel for appearing on *Legend*. Accused of causing Société Générale to lose nearly 5 billion euros, Jérôme Kerviel became—against his will—the face of France’s biggest financial scandal. In 2008, at just 31 years old, the trader found himself caught in a spiral of high-stakes risk-taking within a high-pressure, performance-obsessed environment—eventually reaching a breaking point. For *Legend*, he looks back at the inside story of the affair: what really happened, his role, the question of responsibility... and the consequences that persist to this day.
