GET UP CLOSE AND PERSONAL WITH THE ENEMY….
28th May 2019
The Brink follows Trump’s former White House chief strategist Steve Bannon as he continues his quest on what he calls the “global populist movement.”
Filmmaker Alison Klayman somehow managed to convince this man to allow her full access into his world. From hotel-room meetings with Trump-supporting midterm candidates looking to kiss Bannon’s ring, to intimate liasons with far-right leaders from France, Hungary, Belgium, and Britain, all plotting their next move. This is an opportunity to see up close and very personal how the enemy very much like Trump works and manipulates the world to support their harmful ideals. Brillant and gripping!
I had the chance to catch up with Alison at Sundance London. She was full of energy, super smart and incredibly empowered to share what she worked so hard with her team to expose. Alison went on the road for months with a man who she didn’t particular like, respect or share the same values as. However much like an investigative journalist, she put all her focus into telling the real story of a man that once was instrumental in helping Donald Trump become President.
Alison put herself in a position that was uncomfortable but she knew the importance of sharing this story in such a candid uncensored way.
I can’t recommend ‘The Brink’ enough!
