“I don’t lose – I win. Even when I lose, I win”.

Set against the backdrop of a tight primary race, presidential candidate’s press secretary Stephen Bellamy’s meteoric rise falls prey to the ruthless backroom politics of more seasoned operatives.

A merciless dissection of the machinations behind getting elected, the lust for power and the costs endured to achieve it in the hubristic world of political campaigns.
