It is no secret that documentaries take a bit of time to put together. However, it is not every day that a daughter takes three decades of work and puts it into a film examining the career of their mother. That’s sort of why HBO’s latest project stands out in a crowded field of political documentaries this year. Led by Alexandra Pelosi, daughter of Nancy Pelosi, the film dives deep into the life, legacy and career of the longtime American lawmaker.
“In her 14th documentary film for HBO, acclaimed documentarian Alexandra Pelosi offers a candid, behind-the-scenes chronicle of the life of her mother and Speaker of the United States House of Representatives, Nancy Pelosi, through her career milestones leading up to the inauguration of President Joseph Biden in January 2021,” the film’s synopsis reads.
“Filmed in a cinéma vérité style over the course of three decades, Pelosi In The House provides a unique, longitudinal window into the life of a longstanding Democratic politician and history in the making.”
After three decades of work, Pelosi In The House is ready for the big screen. Check out the trailer below before it hits HBO on December 13, 2022.
