Seduced and Blackmailed
51m
Directed by Aldo Gugolz and Romeo Regenass • Documentary • 2012 • 51 minutes
Helg Sgarbi, a Swiss man with a radiant smile, tries to extort 14 million Euro from BMW’s major shareholder Susanne Klatten by threatening to publish intimate photos.
Susanne Klatten however, isn't afraid: the richest woman in Germany contacts the police and her blackmailer is arrested. The story goes public, and it turns out that this case is only the tip of the iceberg.
The money Sgarbi obtained through seducing and blackmailing several rich women probably went directly to an Italian miracle healer named Ernani Barretta and to his sect. Is Barretta really the mastermind behind the blackmailings? When Sgarbi is sentenced to prison, one question remains unanswered: what happened to the money?
