USA 90 min.
Swing State redefines the phrase ‘behind the scenes.’ Where political documentaries were once limited to bleak, coffee-stained campaign offices, Swing State breaks down the final barrier, taking one giant leap into the home of the candidate. Focused primarily on the 2006 Ohio Governor’s race, a contest widely considered to have drastic implications for the outcome of the 2008 Presidential elections, Swing State tells the story of career politician Lee Fisher, who, with family in tow, campaigns for Ohio Lieutenant Governor, alongside Democratic Gubernatorial Candidate and U. S. Congressman Ted Strickland.
