This documentary was nominated Outstanding Writing for a Nonfiction Program at the 71st Primetime Emmy Awards. The Fyre Festival was the defining scam of the millennial generation, at the nexus of social media influence, late-stage capitalism, and morality in the post-truth era. Marketing for the 2017 music event went viral with the help of rapper Ja Rule, Instagram stars, and models but turned epic fail after stranding thousands in the Bahamas.
