Drama re-enacting the legendary interview between disgraced former president Richard Nixon and British journalist David Frost. In 1977, after three years of silence regarding the Watergate scandal that ended his presidency, Nixon decided to grant an exclusive interview with an aim to win the hearts and minds of the American people and save his legacy. He picked David Frost, thinking him to be a safe choice, but the young intellectual had his reputation as a serious journalist at stake and as the cameras rolled, a fascinating and charged battle of wits resulted.
