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 astonishing journey. Fergie Chambers is a communist who, as heir to one of the wealthiest families in American history, has the ability to create his vision of the world in a way that few do. He funds people and projects, like a Marxist-Leninist collective in Massachusetts, that seek to destroy the hypercapitalist structure that he himself is a product of. With his resources, it should be easy, but why isn’t it? From director Sinéad O’Shea comes a fascinating study of the power money has to make and destroy, and what access to astronomical wealth does to a person and those around him. All About the Money is a documentary for our times of concentrated wealth and power, and the dream of creating another world while still being mired in this one.
