Synopsis

The Body Politic is a hopeful vision amid the persistent struggle with gun violence in the US. Brandon Scott, Baltimore’s young, idealistic mayor, takes on the daunting task of transforming his city, scarred by years of unrest and loss. Elected in the turbulent aftermath of George Floyd’s death, Brandon steps into office with bold plans for reducing violence and reforming policing, vowing to curb Baltimore’s troubling murder rate. Through intimate glimpses into his first year of challenges, the question emerges: can his comprehensive approach inspire change in cities across the country?
