‘The Aristocrats: The Rothschilds’ (2016)

Who are they, and how much power do they wield in society and international affairs?

2276

This week’s documentary film curated by our editorial team at 21WIRE.

Who are the Rothschilds, how rich are they exactly, and how much power do they wield in society and transatlantic and world affairs and finance? These are not easy questions to answer, and we may never know the real extent of the nature of these power networks, but we can tell a lot simply by examining the behavior and attitudes of this elite dynasty. This film offers a quasi behind-the-scenes, contemporary look at the British family seat of this enduring oligarchy and how they are situated (from a mainstream public perspective anyway) within the ruling hierarchy.
