Weiner (2016)

In the heart of vibrant New York City, once stood a hero of the common man, Anthony Weiner, who held the mantle of a revered Congressman for seven consecutive terms. A cherished political ally of the Clintons, Weiner was a beacon of hope and resilience until a scandal erupted in June 2011, tarnishing his reputation. Forced to confess about tweeting explicit, faceless pictures of himself to women he had met online, Weiner found himself resigning in disgrace. His wife, Huma Abedin, a significant aide to Hillary Clinton, and pregnant with their first child, chose to stand beside him despite the scandal. Two years later, with Abedin's unwavering support, Weiner attempts to breathe life back into his political career by running for the position of New York City mayor. He's acutely aware of the uphill battle he faces, not just because of the infamous tweeted photos, but the potential emergence of other scandalous images from his past. Weiner grapples with the notion that his personal indiscretions should bear no weight on his professional competence as a politician. However, he cannot escape the shadow of his past mistakes, which threaten to haunt his election campaign. A divided electorate, some indifferent to his personal life, some unable to forgive his past actions, and some on the fence, pose a tumultuous journey ahead. Weiner's biggest challenge, however, is to regain the trust of his campaign staff, Abedin, and the collective "they". As skeletons from his closet threaten to resurface, the question remains, will they be willing to forgive him a second time, especially if he fails to own up to his actions?
