Histoire
Scumbag begins with Broni, a teenager, disappearing from a rehabilitation center. Her friend Nada tells journalist Ondra about her missing friend and the questionable practices at the facility. Based on Nada's testimony, Ondra starts investigating, uncovering links between high-ranking politicians and organized crime. Meanwhile, a promising parliament member supported by mafia starts his own party, wins the election, and becomes Prime Minister. The newly elected government, controlled by criminals, manipulates power for personal gain.
