Billionaire activist George Soros is one of the most influential and controversial figures of our time. Famous for betting against the Bank of England in 1992, and making a billion dollars in one day, he is maligned by ideologues on both the left and the right for daring to tackle the world’s problems and putting his money behind his fight—from free elections to freedom of the press. With unprecedented access, director Jesse Dylan follows Soros across the globe, pulling back the curtain on his philanthropy, activism, and personal history as a Holocaust survivor. This revealing portrait unravels fact from fiction to demystify the man, and what motivates him in his lifelong crusade against authoritarianism and hate.
