Weiner (2016)
Absolutely the most hilarious and entertaining politics doco ever! It’s almost beyond belief that this really happened
Trumped (2017)
The name of this doco alone makes it essential viewing for anyone interested in the 2016 US Presidential election. It was apparently hastily assembled in the wake of the shock result, from footage captured for Showtime’s series ‘the Circus’
