The Return of the War Room

Legendary documentary filmmaker D.A. Pennebaker returns to the Cologne Conference with a politically explosive film full of fascinating people – a portrait of Bill Clinton's 1992 campaign team. Featuring the people who were then pulling the strings, it is an emotional look back at the time when Bill Clinton kicked Republican President George Bush Sr. out of office. Using no fake gloss and relying instead on the power of words alone, the sober narration puts an astonishing story front and center: the story of some brilliant campaign staffers who laid the groundwork for Clinton's image as the "Comeback Kid" by turning every charge against him into an advantage. Moreover, some at least equally captivating background narratives are also in the mix.
