 "Steal
This Movie!" is a cosmic safari through one man's odyssey
of devotion, struggle and emotional tenderness. The film charts
the rise and fall of Abbie Hoffman - activist, radical, fugitive,
lover - and leads us through the maze of music, politics, and
personal struggle of the late Sixties and Seventies.
Abbie's story reflects a culture that abandoned comfort for
freedom, money for passion, complacency for instinct. He recognized
an enlightened breed of renegade soldiers in this hippie generation.
They were young, bold, defiant, reactive. They had invaded his
home - the Lower East Side of Manhattan - and they stood for
resistance, reaction and change.
And Abbie would lead them through love, sex, and revolutionary
joy to raise their consciousness and help end the war in Vietnam.
Like a psychological Robin Hood, he "liberated" from
the materialistic, narrow-minded rich and gave to the spiritually
enhanced. He burned money and "levitated" the Pentagon.
With the love of his life, Anita, by his side, Abbie outraged
the establishment and seduced "his" passion generation
into action.
