Boots Riley Turns a Bay Area Heist Into an Anti-Capitalist Carnival

Boots Riley’s new film I Love Boosters centers a Bay Area crew of shoplifters and channels his long-running anti-capitalist vision into a visually and comically bold story about awakening to exploitation through collective action. Drawing on decades as a leftist organizer and projects like Sorry to Bother You and I’m a Virgo, Riley emphasizes sharp humor and spectacle over didacticism, even as his Gaza support has sparked backlash from Hollywood elites and signals his willingness to pursue an anti-capitalist revolution in his future work.
