FILM 1554: MY FRIEND
ROCKEFELLER
Christian Gerhartsreiter, a man
eventually known as "Clark Rockefeller", lived a life of deception;
the FBI called it "the longest-running con in FBI history." After
ingratiating himself into New York society and marrying a top banker with a
Harvard MBA, "Clark" settled into his new luxurious life. The two had
a daughter, before they divorced after 13 years. When his wife won custody, a
distraught Clark abducted his beloved daughter. Ironically, it was the search
for the missing child that not only exposed a web of lies and multiple
identities, but a double murder committed decades earlier. How was
Gerhartsreiter able to dupe so many people - from the very cream of society?
What buttons did he press? We followed his trail and collected the reflections
of those close to him. His friends who were left in the wake of his
roller-coaster journey: from a Bavarian village to the most exclusive clubs on
the American East Coast - to the grand finale in a Los Angeles court room. (IMDB)
