A colorful and provocative survey of anarchism in America, the film attempts to dispel popular misconceptions and trace the historical development of the movement. The film explores the movement both as a native American philosophy stemming from 19th century American traditions of individualism, and as a foreign ideology brought to America by immigrants. The film features rare archival footage and interviews with significant personalities in anarchist history including Murray Boochkin and Karl Hess, and also live performance footage of the Dead Kennedys.

An investigative (but frequently humorous) documentary on the surveillance activities of the New York City Police Department's Bureau of Special Services, known as the Red Squad. "An extraordinary political film, in which the spies - Red Squad and undercover police assigned to infiltrate the American Left - are in turn spied upon. The result: a photographic exposé of faces and agents in action, fully identified by name and title."
- Amos Vogel, Film as a Subversive Art
