Overview
- Directed by Sinéad O’Shea, the documentary profiles an heir to the Cox fortune who redirects personal wealth into anti-capitalist projects.
- Its strongest passages focus on the Berkshire Communists, a leftist community living on Chambers’ Massachusetts property with housing and food supplied by him.
- Reviewers say the film grows disjointed as it follows Chambers’ rapid reinventions, citing abrupt international shifts and missing outside perspectives.
- The narrative extends to Tunisia, where Chambers converts to Islam and buys the struggling Club Africain, underscoring his volatility and influence.
- O’Shea discloses that Chambers tried to buy the film to stop its release, while the documentary only suggests, without substantiation, a role in Elbit Systems vandalism.
