House of Maxwell is a 3-part series charting the story of one of the most extraordinary family sagas the world has ever seen.
From Ghislaine Maxwell’s conviction for grooming and trafficking underage girls, to her brothers, Kevin and Ian, facing Britain’s biggest ever fraud trial, all the way back to her father’s extraordinary rise and mysterious death, this is a series that spans decades and takes the audience deep into a world of power and corruption. Breaking journalistic ground, it combines present tense topicality with sophisticated retrospective storytelling; bringing audiences the deeply British origin story behind the trial that gripped the world.
