Eight years after his phenomenal debut Sorry to Bother You, Boots Riley returns to the big screen with another absurdist, stylized take on modern society.
A fearless crew of inventive young women (Keke Palmer, Naomi Ackie, and Taylour Paige) turns shoplifting into a radical act of defiance. Led by Corvette, they move across Oakland, boosting coveted goods as both survival and protest—challenging a system built on exclusion and excess. When their exploits draw unwanted viral attention and their feud with fashion mogul Christie Smith (Demi Moore) turns personal, the Boosters plan one final, audacious heist.
