Synopsis
A behind-the-scenes journey of Bill Clinton’s campaign for the 1992 Presidential election and a peculiar approach to the work of campaign managers James Carville and George Stephanopoulos. A couple of veterans, formed by Chris Hegedus and D. A. Pennebaker, focus on the effort of these two strategists, especially the way they deal with the media or campaign decisions they decide to take, unraveling a world usually hidden from the eyes of common people. Bill Clinton himself is almost never seen in this exclusive and privileged portrait of the corridors of politics and the games of power.
