Watch 'Industry': Delve into imaginary trading
Mint Bangalore|December 27, 2024
This serial does what the film 'Wall Street' did. It reveals how grubby investment banking can be. But it also shows the power of money to bury hatchets and forge unlikely alliances

Looking for an online serial to binge-watch in the run-up to 2025? Viewers with a literary bent need look no further than One Hundred Years of Solitude, the Netflix version of Gabriel Garcia Marquez's 1967 novel directed by Alex Garcia Lopez Laura Mora. Those with even a casual interest in finance, high or low, might be better rewarded by watching Industry.

An HBO serial directed by Lena Dunham (of Girls fame) that's available in India via the Jio Cinema app, it's about high-strung careers and low-laid lives at an investment bank called Pierpoint, and its third season tops BBC's list of 'The 20 best TV shows of 2024' for good reason. It is fiction, of course, set in the City of London. So its sordid portrayals of what goes on in the global financial industry are exaggerations, though plausible enough not to be caricatures.
