Documentary portrait of U.S. conservative strategist Stephen K. Bannon by non-fiction maestro Errol Morris (The Fog of War, The Thin Blue Line).
On a set modelled after one of Bannon’s favourite movies, World War II pilot pic Twelve O’Clock High, the former Trump campaign executive and ex-Breitbart chair discusses his controversial, disruptive right-wing thinking. Frequently invoking the Sanskrit word "dharma" used in the film's title, Bannon relates the word to duty, destiny, fate, and obligation as Morris explores Bannon's theory of dharma and the effects it has had on US politics.
