Synopsis:
This feature documentary was filmed behind-the-scenes of 1994's Virginia Senate race between Oliver North and Charles Robb. More than a fascinating and farcial chrinicle of one mud-soaked, ideologically polarized race, A Perfect Candidate is a parable about leadership and the exploitation of faith in a cynical age. It's a journey into the heart of darkness of our current political process, where issues take a back seat to the machinations of political handlers, and where the people's interest can get lost in media half of minors.
