    Sorry to Bother You (2018) is the most on-the-nose communist film I have ever watched. It’s written by communist activist Boots Riley. The Wikipedia synopsis should give a good idea of how great it is:

    The film follows a young black telemarketer who adopts a white accent to succeed at his job. Swept into a corporate conspiracy, he must choose between profit and joining his activist friends to organize labor.
