Sexts, lies, and Carlos Danger: watch the wildest political meltdown in recent history as it unfolds. Its 2013 and Anthony Weinerstill reeling from the sex scandal that ended his political career two years earlieris back in the spotlight as he mounts an audacious comeback campaign for New York City mayor. But its not long before history repeats itself and new sexting allegations leave Weiner and his aides scrambling to contain the damage. Granted unfettered access to the candidate and his campaign, filmmakers Josh Kriegman and Elyse Steinberg capture a jaw-dropping, behind-the-scenes look at the political machine as it breaks down. Winner of the 2016 Sundance Grand Jury Prize for U.S. Documentary.
