It's about a green capitalist who works with the CIA and a treasonous general to overthrow the left wing government of Bolivia in exchange for access to resources. It's fucking crazy. As a bonus, they even mention that the general's whole goal is to keep the gov't from raising the minimum wage to $1.

Naturally, at the end the bad actors in the CIA get fired and everything is put right... But God damn, up until that nonsense it's an incredibly perceptive film

    I recommend the Amazon series Hanna for similar reasons, its extremely based until at the last second it goes from the one CIA agent that rebelled against the secret assassin program and Hanna, the girl he rescued, vs. the whole CIA and the State department to pulling some similar lib-ish nonsense but it's pretty rad watching a bunch of CIA goons get owned by a teenager. There's even a brief shot of a CIA kill list that's just leftist politicians, journalists, civil rights activists, and environmentalists.
