Documentary

In this bold, eye-opening documentary, Stevenson embarks on a journey across Britain to confront the people living on both sides of the country’s deepening economic divide—from those crushed by the wealth gap to the billionaires thriving at the top. Having once amassed his own fortune in finance, he now challenges the system that made him rich, digging into what’s fueling inequality across the UK today. The film captures raw conversations with economists, frontline workers, financiers, and everyday citizens, as Stevenson debates his fiercest critics and listens to those who back his bold proposals. At its core, the documentary zeroes in on his central argument: that real change demands a wealth tax, forcing the ultra-rich to pay their fair share to fix a broken system.
