- One for anyone who remembers how big everything felt at sixteen and politics junkies. Small moments carry real weight here, the way they do when you're young. Power and ambition drive every scene.
- The mood
- Eye-opening.
- The pace
- Well paced for a documentary, at 1 hr 20 min. An easy one to fit in on a school night.
