Movies and TvShows featuring "political-opportunism" theme.

The House I Live In is a powerful documentary that delves into the devastating consequences of the war on drugs in America. Through personal stories and expert interviews, the film examines the deep-rooted issues of systemic racism, social class disparity, and the prison-industrial complex. It sheds light on the destructive cycle of criminalization, recidivism, and the overall failure of the criminal justice system. The House I Live In also raises questions about the moral implications, political opportunism, and hidden motives behind the drug war.

The film is a 125-minute, black-and-white biography of French priest and diplomat Charles Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord (1754–1838), who served for 50 years under five different French regimes: the Absolute Monarchy, the Revolution, the Consulate, the Empire, and the Constitutional Monarchy. Its title comes from one of the main historical nicknames for Talleyrand, that he shares with demon king Asmodeus and English poet Lord Byron.
