"Blunt and effective." — Manohla Dargis, New York Times
"Moss and Gerber clearly understand that the ticktock of this hypothetical insurgency will make for exciting cinema, but they’re also interested in how the people participating in this simulation got here." — Bilge Ebiri, Vulture
A real-life political thriller set on January 6, 2025, War Game imagines a nation-wide insurrection in which members of the US military defect to support the losing Presidential candidate, while the winning candidate and his advisors—played by an all-star roster of senior officials from the last five administrations—war games the crisis in the White House situation room. They have 6 hours to save democracy as the country teeters on the brink of civil war.
