A new film in theaters centers on a group called “boosters,” described as people who steal clothes from stores and sell them at discounted prices as a form of community service. The story follows Corvette, a fashion-forward character who begins questioning the system after discovering others may be profiting from stolen designs. The film raises questions about who is truly stealing from whom. The cast includes LaKeith Stanfield, Naomi Ackie, Taylour Paige, Poppy Liu, Don Cheadle, Demi Moore, and Keke Palmer. The director emphasizes a bold visual approach using large washes of color and encourages audiences to experience the movie on a big screen with others.
"The film centers on a group known as “boosters,” described in the trailer as “somebody who steals clothes from a store and sells it at a discount price. It's's like community service.”"
"Palmer plays Corvette, a fashion-forward character who begins to question the system after discovering others may be profiting from stolen designs. In one moment from the trailer, her character declares, “Christie Smith stole my design.”"
"Riley emphasized the film's visual style and theatrical experience, encouraging audiences to see it on the big screen. “We did these big washes of color,” he said. “So you don't want to see it on some screen on your wall. You want it to be where you're affected and overwhelmed by this color. Beyond that, beyond your own personal experience, you have to be around everybody laughing their butts off.”"
"Stanfield highlighted Palmer's role on set, describing her as “always a motivator, a great person to have as the lead of the movie in setting the standard as to how we're gonna make this movie. It was just great, and she's also, while at the same time being a leader, a friend, a genuine down-to-earth friend that everybody can feel connected to. She doesn't miss a person.”"
