A TV magazine and an apparently corrupt presidential candidate go head to head., 25 July 2000

"Focus", an imaginary TV magazine, "discovers" that a leading presidential candidate is a sexual harasser. No one wants to come forward as a source until... This movie goes out of its way to try to keep you guessing (read that confused). It does a very good job, because in the end, the plot line is so twisted, if you look back, it doesn't even make sense.
