Brandon Darby is a/was a radical activist bent on the overthrow of the US government. Only he sees some things he doesn't like and ends up turning FBI informant. This documentary covers that flip flop, talking to Darby and lots of his former compatriots. It seeks to explain his motivations for turning while also exploring the feelings of betrayal many of his former friends are having. In the end, it does a little of both but never really makes anything clear. Darby isn't particularly likeable, his former friends aren't much better, and this just isn't very good. 4/10.
