Eric Trump

A phantasmagoric odyssey into the presidency of Donald J. Trump. This film is a collaboration between VICE News and surrealist video artist Vic Berger.

In 2016, almost anyone you asked, or any poll you consulted, pointed you to a Hillary Clinton landslide. The Accidental President is a balanced feature documentary that is seeking to answer one question - how the hell did Trump win?

In 2020, the USA experienced a multiple catastrophe: No other country in the world was hit so badly by the coronavirus pandemic, the economic slump was dramatic, and so was the rise in unemployment. A rift ran through society. In the streets there were protests of both camps with violent riots, authoritarian traits were evident in the actions of the leader of the nation. And all of this in the middle of the election year, when the self-centered president fought vehemently for his re-election. From the start of his presidency, Donald Trump had divided American society, incited individual sections of the population against one another, fueled racism, hatred, xenophobia and prejudice, insulted competitors and denigrated critical journalists as enemies of the people. The documentary shows how this could happen and what role the targeted disinformation of certain sections of the population through manipulative media played.

We form our perceptions of the world based from sound bites on small screens - Including our opinions of the President. This narrow viewpoint opens up for one film producer when he befriends Lara Trump. Lara introduces him and us to several women in the Trump family, administration, campaign, and business. Through these women's firsthand experiences with the President, we gain a broad understanding of the Trump they know.
