If anything has recently brought all Central and Eastern Europeans together, it's their great disillusion with politicians. Now, many Czechs envy the Slovaks their president, but at the time the Slovak head of state was elected in 2014, there was much confusion. Making the right choice wasn't as easy as it seems today. This documentary takes viewers behind the scenes of the individual election campaigns. It offers moments both amusing and alarming; the humorous alternates with the serious; there are minor transgressions and even harsh attacks. One key question floats to the top: Aren't all politicians today ultimately the products of good or bad marketing campaigns? (One World)
