This documentary is amazing. The summary is posted above, read it. Right off the bat I you feel an emotional connection with Jeff Smith, and the feeling never subsides. The documentarians did a great job of connecting you right away with the protagonist, Smith, and never letting go. While the film seems personal you are alway getting a birds-eye view via local political commentators.This film shows you how a campaign is run on a grass roots level. This film shows you how American politics really runs. This film is what every documentary should be.Democrats and Republicans alike can love this political underdog story. 10/10 (not for people not interested in politics)
