Street Fighting Man: Alan Grayson

Street Fighting Man: The Political Mind of Alan Grayson is a documentary feature about the re-election campaign of Congressman Alan Grayson (D - FL), who famously said the Republican’s health care plan was simply, “Don’t get sick, and if you do, die quickly.” In the traditional sense, the film is a non-partisan look at Grayson’s bid to become the first Democrat to ever win a second term in Florida’s conservative 8th District. In the not-so-traditional sense, it is a satiric look at the political state of our Union.

Republicans are calling Grayson “Enemy Number 1” in the mid-term election. Defeating Grayson is viewed not only as a win for their party, but a symbolic blow to the Democratic Party. This fight for the 8th, with all its competitiveness and in-fighting, is a microcosm of politics in America in 2010.

The filmmakers have exclusive access to the Congressman’s campaign, and it is through the political mind of Alan Grayson that this race will be won or lost.
