Knife Fight

If a political candidate is personally flawed, but stands to make a positive difference in millions of lives, would you help him win? That question looms over the life of "true believer" Paul Turner, a savvy strategist sharply maneuvering politicians out of scandal and into public office. With the help of a bright young assistant and a seedy operative, Turner spins every news cycle and a shrewd reporter on behalf of his clients: a philandering Kentucky governor, a blackmailed California senator, and an idealistic doctor turned gubernatorial candidate. When the ugly side of Turner's work begins to haunt him, he learns that even in the bloodiest of battles, sometimes you have to fight clean. (IFC Films)
