“Oakland raised artist Boots Riley is perhaps the most interesting individual in media today. Driven by his communist background Boots can be found pushing for twitter users to go watch his new film I Love Boosters in theaters NOW! Boots’ filmography though small has some of the most successful and dense messaging of any contemporary director. His feature films Sorry to Bother You and the aforementioned I Love Boosters tackle the issues of anti-capitalism, labor unions, and consumerism just to name a few. The films are aided by there famously insane plot twist and beautiful colors. Though Boots is an incredible director his art began through the form of music, his group The Coup would spread their political ideology through their work with songs such as Kill My Landlord, 5 Million Ways To Kill A C.E.O., and The Guillotine. I had the privilege to hear Boots speak at a discussion forum on radical cinema and black cultural imagination and he was perhaps one of the most intriguing characters I’ve witnessed in my life. Exceptionally well versed in his craft his political ideology and a fresh take on the world that we’ve inherited. Anyway go watch I Love Boosters NOW!”

“a live action leftist looney tunes bursting at the seams with color and creativity so bold and bright to remind you it's not just blockbusters that demand to be seen on the big screen. equal parts hysterical, brutally honest, and infectiously hopeful for the future. absolutely adored and made me optimistic for both original filmmaking and my generation's ongoing activism against wealth inequality. boots riley's brain should be studied for science.”

“Weird,outlandish,ridiculous and politically on point!”

“Bombastic and so utterly, joyfully over-the-top through and through, and in all the best ways. And that Tune-Yards score is just earworms for days!”
