Review

What does ecommerce fraud in the social media era look like? Look no further than to this almost unbelievable documentary about the ill-fated Fyre Festival in 2017, and how the "organizers" went from crazy idealists to outright fraudsters. The film treads dangerous ground in vilifying individuals, but stays just within the ethical boundaries by giving its subjects a fair chance to contribute their version of the story. Highly interesting from start to finish.
