Captivated by a new spirit of hope in America, Franco-American filmmakers Guetty Felin and Hervé Cohen leave their home in Paris to plunge into the heart of the Obama movement in "Closer to the Dream". Journeying from state to state during the Democratic primaries, they unearth the personal, compelling stories of an array of politically inspired citizens on the ground. As the film unfolds, their personal stories allow us to see Obama’s historical candidacy through the eyes of ordinary Americans.
