Um documentário sobre a lendária série de debates, transmitidos pela TV nacionalmente em 1968, entre dois grandes intelectuais públicos, o liberal Gore Vidal e o conservador William F. Buckley Jr. Produzidos para comentar as questões de seu dia-a-dia, esses encontros ácidos e explosivos vieram definir a era moderna do discurso público na mídia, marcando o momento da grande explosão de nossa paisagem de mídia contemporânea quando o espetáculo superou conteúdo e o argumento substituiu a substância. O Melhor dos Inimigos mergulha nas biografias emaranhadas desses dois grandes pensadores e nos presenteia com a linguagem e o teatro de seus debates, nos impondo a pergunta: "Quanto a televisão determinou na forma como discutimos a política hoje em nossa democracia?"

How does art survive in a time of oppression? During the Soviet rule artists who stay true to their vision are executed, sent to mental hospitals or Gulags. Their plight inspires young Igor Savitsky. He pretends to buy state-approved art but instead daringly rescues 40,000 forbidden fellow artist's works and creates a museum in the desert of Uzbekistan, far from the watchful eyes of the KGB. Though a penniless artist himself, he cajoles the cash to pay for the art from the same authorities who are banning it. Savitsky amasses an eclectic mix of Russian Avant-Garde art. But his greatest discovery is an unknown school of artists who settle in Uzbekistan after the Russian revolution of 1917, encountering a unique Islamic culture, as exotic to them as Tahiti was for Gauguin. They develop a startlingly original style, fusing European modernism with centuries-old Eastern traditions.
