A Dangerous Game

In this follow-up to the award-winning You’ve Been Trumped, director Anthony Baxter again tracks American billionaire Donald Trump with a cadre of voracious players determined to convert some of the world’s most cherished places into golf courses and playgrounds for the ultra-wealthy. From Dubrovnik’s historic site to the ancient dunes and rolling green hills near the seaside town of Balmedie, these magnates bully local residents, sway governments, override local referendums, and even meddle in national environmental policies to claim their latest trophies. Through revealing interviews and Baxter’s deft storytelling, we learn how these golf developments can devastate the surrounding countryside and water tables. This funny, inspirational, and at times heartbreaking David and Goliath story for the 21st century shows locals fighting back. But will their resistance be enough to safeguard their land and traditional way of life?
