공화당을 지지하는 언론계의 거물 케이 손다이크는 자신이 사랑하는 남자 그랜트를 미국의 대통령 자리에 앉히기로 결심한다. 그녀가 원하는 것은 대통령이 된 연인 뒤에서 실질적인 권력을 휘두르는 것이다. 케이는 자신의 신문사를 이용해 민주당 전당대회를 교착 상태에 빠트리고, 결국에는 뜻밖의 다크호스인 그랜트의 지지율을 높인다. 한편, 소원해졌던 그랜트의 아내 메리는 남편과 케이의 관계를 알면서도 남편의 선거운동을 돕기로 하고, 메리와 함께하면서 그랜트는 점차 자신의 목소리를 내기 시작한다. 퓰리처상을 수상한, 러셀 크루즈와 하워드 린제이의 동명희곡을 영화화했다. 정치극으로 다시 돌아온 카프라는 원작에서 다룬 논쟁적인 주제들을 다소 유화시키면서도, 당대 미국 정치판의 추악한 이면에 대한 분노와 슬픔을 주인공 그랜트가 선거운동을 하면서 변해가는 모습을 통해 그려냈다.

Winner of the BREAKOUT AWARD at the 2019 Raw Science Film Festival, Immortality or Bust follows Zoltan Istvan's Transhumanist Party presidential campaign to its final, and revealing conclusion.

CNN's team of female journalists and embeds pack up and leave their families to fan out across the country and report on the president and his would-be rivals as the candidates launch campaigns and contend for voters.

In 2020, the USA experienced a multiple catastrophe: No other country in the world was hit so badly by the coronavirus pandemic, the economic slump was dramatic, and so was the rise in unemployment. A rift ran through society. In the streets there were protests of both camps with violent riots, authoritarian traits were evident in the actions of the leader of the nation. And all of this in the middle of the election year, when the self-centered president fought vehemently for his re-election. From the start of his presidency, Donald Trump had divided American society, incited individual sections of the population against one another, fueled racism, hatred, xenophobia and prejudice, insulted competitors and denigrated critical journalists as enemies of the people. The documentary shows how this could happen and what role the targeted disinformation of certain sections of the population through manipulative media played.
