I watched this earlier in the week, not sure how I got watching it, just randomly pressed it on Netflix and it is oddly very compelling and entertaining. So many people got swept up in it and refused for so long to admit that it had gone to ****
. Like the festival organiser guy they had on board at the very start (when they still had the private island) who was telling them the only way to make it work was to have cruise ships as the accommodation (because they have built-in food / water / sanitation) and it was a totally feasible idea but they were like "NOPE" and fired him.
Then the promoter guy who, when it had clearly all gone wrong, was like "We need to just admit it and tell people not to come" and they were like "Nope and shut up or you won't get paid"
.
But yeah it's the islanders who worked manual labour setting it up and never got paid I feel bad for. And the lady who was organising the catering and did pay her own staff, but out of her own pocket using all of her savings.
