PACmen (2017)
This observational documentary follows the men behind the Super-PACs that persuaded Dr Ben Carson to run for President. Believing Carson can save the Republican Party, they successfully draft him to run, raise millions of dollars and catapult him to the top of the polls. However, as Carson's political inexperience begins to show, his constant media gaffes make fundraising increasingly difficult. Donors and voters abandon Carson's campaign as wallets close, hearts open and faith is tested. As Trump inexplicably rises, the campaign descends into chaos and the PACmen begin to wonder - did they pick the wrong savior?

All that we are seeing on the screen is happening with real people, real action sequences in the background, forcing the eye to watch as if we were there.
It really made me laugh, but for some moments I was tearing up because I could relate so much.
It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...
Strong acting helps the film overcome an uncertain premise and create characters that hold our attention absolutely.
Saw it the other day and it's a really good doc about the reality in States and the popular phenomenon that can dictate people that will have a significant way on peoples lives. Down and fall like in all movies and TV series. Definitely a doc by the hand of Luke Walker and his way of telling a story.
