Knock Down the House
Description:
Knock Down the House follows three democratic candidates—Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Amy Vilela, and Cori Bush—as they mount uphill campaigns against powerful incumbents in 2018. Through intimate interviews, home footage, and rally scenes, the film chronicles their personal motivations, the toll of fundraising, and the sense that ordinary people can challenge the political establishment. Directed by Rachel Lears, it offers a hopeful portrait of grassroots organizing, resilience, and courage. It premiered at Sundance and streams on Netflix.Keywords:
