George Soros is a controversial figure. He became famous for betting against the Bank of England in 1992 —and making 1 billion in just one day. Jew and activist for causes like freedom for the press and civil rights for minorities, Soros uses his money to solve problems and is criticized by ideologues of right and left wings. The documentary follows the billionaire around the world, revealing his history: how the experience of surviving the Holocaust gave rise to his fight against hate and authoritarism.
