    What is I Love Boosters about?

    Boots Riley's sophomore feature returns to Oakland with a sharper, angrier satire of the attention economy. Keke Palmer and LaKeith Stanfield lead a cast including Naomi Ackie and Demi Moore in a near-future fable about citizens paid to wear corporate content on their bodies — until the embedded ads begin broadcasting messages their hosts never approved. What starts as gig-economy comedy escalates into body horror and workplace revolt as Riley asks who owns your skin when sponsorship becomes literal. The film treats surveillance capitalism as both punchline and panic attack.
