Plot Summary
DHL Founder and billionaire Larry Hillblom seemed to have vanished into thin air when he failed to return from a routine flight in his vintage Seabee over the Pacific. After his disappearance, a dark side of Larry emerged. Even before he was officially declared dead, bar girls throughout Southeast Asia came forward claiming to have had children by Larry and seeking a piece of his vast fortune. BILLIONAIRE unravels the secretive and scandalous life of this enigmatic and reclusive tycoon. The battle over his estate took on epic proportions, pitting impoverished, teenage prostitutes against Larry's former business associates and several of the largest law firms in the world. In the end it is a David and Goliath story, as a surprising hero emerges to untangle the web and discover the startling truth.

Worth the Time
Difficult to understand why anyone would think this movie boring. it tells a fascinating story about the life (and then the fight for his money after death) of Larry Hillblom, the "H" of DHL, a brilliant but complicated man who many consider responsible for globalization. The David vs Golaith story is filled with mystery, intrigue, and apparent criminal activity. We saw it at the Tribeca Film Festival and the audience cheered.

A stirring david vs goliath legal thriller and fascinating portrait of one man. Unlike many docs, SHADOW BILLIONAIRE feels atmospheric, emotionally charged and cinematic. Kudos to director Alexis Spraic for knocking it out of the park!
