Plot

Documentary featuring a jaw-dropping, behind-the-scenes look at the attempted comeback of Anthony Weiner in 2013 as he mounts a campaign for New York City mayor in the wake of his sexting scandal. Featuring unfettered access to the candidate and his campaign.

Sinekatalog’s take

A riveting political documentary that follows a disgraced candidate's comeback attempt with startling access. It is funny, painful and hard to look away from, showing ambition and self-sabotage side by side. A top pick for fans of campaign-trail drama.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
