Overview

Inspired by John Ibrahim's best-selling autobiography, this series is an operatic story of two brothers, Sam and John Ibrahim who organize the street but lose each other in their ascent to power. The story tracks John Ibrahim's rise from a poverty-stricken immigrant with no education, no money, and no prospects, to Australia's most infamous nightclub mogul in Sydney's Kings Cross — a mini-Atlantic City, barely half a mile long with every form of criminality on offer.

Its Aussie vibe feels somewhat overcooked and perhaps, even, a little self indulgent. The larger than life characters who populate the red light district of Kings Cross in Sydney, feel a little too large, when compared to the reality of who these people were or are.
