A son of one of America's wealthiest families creates a communist revolutionary base in rural Massachusetts as a means of disrupting the capitalist system he grew up in but has now come to despise. It's the starting point of an unbelievable journey involving radical ideals, betrayal and exile.
He was born into immense wealth, then tried to run in the opposite direction. From that fracture, All About the Money becomes something far larger than a story about privilege or rebellion. It is a film about the ache of living inside a world ruled by money, and the desperate, imperfect longing to imagine another one.
Moving through collective spaces, inherited luxury, political unrest, and the emotional debris of a world tilting further into violence and inequality, the film carries both intimacy and scale. It sees the human face inside ideology. It notices the quiet details that reveal how people live, what they fear, what they cling to, and what they are willing to betray in order to believe their lives can mean something beyond survival.
With rich observational texture, sharp editorial intelligence, and a current of deep moral restlessness, All About the Money speaks to a moment when more and more people are questioning the systems they were told were inevitable. It is a film about contradiction, but also about longing: for justice, for freedom, for reinvention, for a life that does not feel purchased at the expense of someone else’s ruin. - Lucy Hanna, SF DocFest
