Boys State

...a story both heartbreaking and hopeful: part C-Span, part Lord of the Flies, and wholly unforgettable.

The gloves and training wheels come off as a group of smart, poignantly naive and utterly insufferable Texas boys get together to simulate government.

You won’t forget any of the young men who populate this film, nor will this be the last you’ll hear from them.

Watching these teens vie for fake political power is a revelation about what's gone wrong in the modern U.S. government: It's like The War Room meets Model U.N.

Political Doc smells like teen spirit — and hope.
