In April of 2019, the former automotive executive Carlos Ghosn was arrested by Japanese prosecutors. It was his fourth impoundment in Japan in five months, all four related to his “abuses of power” as the chairman and CEO of the Renault-Nissan-Mitsubishi Alliance. Accused of “financial misconduct,” Ghosn maintained his innocence, a stance that caused a hubbub in the media. It wasn’t until the morning of December 30, however, that the spectacle reached its peak. Ghosn, out on bail, had escaped from Japan into Lebanon, illegally transported by train and private jet while hidden inside … a music box?! The new series Wanted: The Escape of Carlos Ghosn succeeds in unpacking the bizarre saga without suppressing its inherent chaos. The four-part documentary features interviews with Ghosn himself, various dogged journalists who covered the story, and others intimately involved with the case. —Jack Sullivan
