Film Showing: The American President
Time: 14:00-16:30, Feb. 15, 2008
Venue: 3rd Floor, Rose Garden Tower, 170 Ngoc Khanh Street, Hanoi
How does the widowed leader of the free world balance his many obligations to his country with the ordinary demands and everyday rites of courtship? When President Andrew Shepherd, quite unexpectedly, falls in love with Sydney Wade, an environmental lobbyist, he must overcome obstacles not faced by average citizens; he must worry that the public's right to know will collide with the desire for personal privacy. He must contend with approval ratings, an inquiring press and an aggressive political opponent just to go on a date. The President's advisors, chief of staff, domestic policy advisor, White House pollster and press secretary help him get through his busy schedule, deal with demands of congress and quell any global predicaments. But political crises are different than personal ones and somehow the American President alone must find a way to balance his love for his country with his love for an incredible woman.
2008 U.S. Presidential Election

The U.S. presidential election is one of the most closely watched political contests in the world. If you've ever wondered what a caucus or an Electoral College is, or why some states are "red" and others "blue," this look at the U.S. election and the political candidates will help demystify the presidential selection process.
