See AOC running for Congress
This excellent documentary showcases four women running for office in the 2018 election. We are now all familiar with AOC but at the time of shooting the film she was just a bartender from the Bronx. Fascinating to see her developing a political style and joining a movement to change the system. All the women in the film are amazing and make great representatives. We need them and others to make a difference!
Will make you cry
Such an inspirational film. Hits all the narrative an emotional beats and gives us such as good backstory into the lives of women running for congress in 2018. Annoyed that many of the reviews so far seem to be composed by explicit anti-AOC types, rather than focusing on who the subject is about focus on the quality of the film you are watching!!!

Inspirational content shot brilliantly
The difficulty with this content is that people will be divided emotionally because of their politics however if you look at the how the pure content was created the inspirational advance thinking and camera techniques combined with the producing approach to filming that tries to incorporate a true understanding of the characters in this documentary you will see this is worthy of a high review and not just partisan political comments
Throw the parties away...
Let's start off by just throwing away which party you normally designate yourself with. This movement doesn't involve parties. This movie is representing and documenting the journey of the working class finally being represented by someone who can relate to us and fight for us. One of the greatest lines in the movie was "it's not me vs Crowley, it's us vs Crowley". I think this is a must see film which I enjoyed and I'm not even political, barely even follow politics. Of course close minded extreme republicans will dislike this film but anyone who can see that parties are irrelevant now and fighting for what we deserve, no matter who you are or where you come from in life, will very much enjoy this movie.
I don't understand some of the things people are saying...
Some of the reviews are saying that this is "downright propaganda" and filled with "radical leftist" etc. etc., and I, quite honestly, didn't see any of that. There were no propaganda at all in this documentary, no one said "This is what you should believe.", all they said was "This is what I believe.". That's why AOC won, she said what she believed in, what she wanted for the country, for the state, and what she could deliver. She also went house to house, street to street, to talk with people about it.
The documentary also featured other candidates, who unfortunately lost the election. They shared extremely personal stories that a lot of people can relate to, and I would lie if I said that I didn't tear up.
Hopefully there'll be a sequel to this documentary, because I really want an inside look in AOC's life, as well as the other newcomers, as they begin their new political careers in congress. One can only hope.
