Sorry to Bother You (2018)
Dieser Film entwickelt eine faszinierende Vision des heutigen Oakland in Kalifornien. Dort entdeckt Telefonverkäufer Cassius Green einen magischen Schlüssel, der ihm zu überirdischem Ruhm verhelfen kann – und ihn in ein makabres Universum befördert. Schnell geht seine Karriere durch die Decke, doch seine Freunde und Kollegen haben andere Sorgen: Sie organisieren Proteste gegen die repressive Politik der Arbeitgeber. Cassius gerät bald unter den Einfluss von Steve Lift, einem Kokain schnüffelnden CEO. Der bietet Cassius ein Gehalt an, das seine kühnsten Träume übersteigt.
Der Regisseur: Boots Riley
