Karel, William (director). Si Ahmed, Karina (producer). Lepetit, Jean-François (producer). Canadian Broadcasting Corporation (Added Author).

Summary: When Barack Obama was elected in 2008, rarely had expectations been so high, and the obstacles to achieve them so great. The new president had to confront major crises — economic collapse chief among them — as well as an opposition wildly determined to discredit him and destroy his agenda. From the producers of March of the Penguins, the film takes us inside the White House with exclusive footage from the NBC News archives. Go behind the scenes of this epic fight with Obama's main advisors and leading political analysts telling the inside story on the president's historic and rocky first term.
