Alexandra Pelosi, daughter of former speaker of the house Congresswoman Nancy Pelosi, looks at the participants and perpetrators of the January 6th insurrection in a new HBO documentary ‘Insurrectionist Next Door’.
‘Insurrectionist Next Door’ premieres on MAX at October 15th.
Synopsis: In her 15th HBO documentary film, Alexandra Pelosi turns her camera on some of the people who stormed the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021. Through a series of candid interviews conducted over the last two years, Pelosi talks to several individuals charged with crimes for their participation in the unprecedented events of the day.
Pelosi was inside the U.S. Capitol on January 6th, witnessing the events first-hand. She speaks with people who were there that day in the hopes of having open and unfiltered conversations about what brought them to Washington, D.C. from across the country and how their views may or may not have shifted since that fateful day. Pelosi seeks a better understanding of cultural and political views that have polarized the country without shying away from challenging topics and a surprisingly forthright set of conversations emerge despite the political divides.
This is Pelosi’s 15th documentary for HBO, as she previously released ‘Pelosi in the House’, ‘Outside the Bubble: A Roadtrip with Alexandra Pelosi’, ‘The Words That Built America’, along with many other titles.
