Synopsis
In March 1981, John Hinckley shot U.S. President Ronald Reagan in a failed assassination attempt driven by a dangerous obsession with the Martin Scorsese film Taxi Driverand actress Jodie Foster. The attack shocked the world and forever changed American history. Found not guilty by reason of insanity, John spent thirty-five years in a psychiatric hospital and now has freedom back. This provocative documentary examines the dark side of the American Dream, as Hinckley now seeks redemption through his art and music and grapples with his past in a nation deeply divided by politics and gripped by gun violence.
