Steve Bannon spent seven years in the Navy, worked as an investment banker at Goldman Sachs, produced far-right films, and ran Internet Gaming Entertainment, a company that collapsed after three of its investors faced child molestation charges. Host Abby Martin traces that path into Bannon's alliance with Andrew Breitbart, whose death in 2012 left Bannon in charge of Breitbart News, and then into the Trump campaign that made him White House Chief Strategist by January 2017. The film treats Breitbart's record of race-baiting and inflammatory content as a direct extension of Bannon's own politics rather than a separate issue, and lays out his idea of 'economic nationalism' as the ideology behind Trump's early agenda. It also raises allegations from Bannon's personal life, including accusations of spousal abuse and child neglect, using them to argue that his public and private conduct match. Made for the Empire Files series, the film is openly adversarial, building its case entirely through Bannon's own career record and the people around him rather than presenting a balanced profile.
