With Trump's political godfather, Roger Stone, as this film's central character, Danish filmmaker Christoffer Guldbrandsen documents how Trump's presidential period had to find its logical end point in The Storm at the Capitol.

The United States of America. It is Wednesday, January 6, 2021. A historic election campaign has divided the country. Now, US congressmen are gathered in parliament at the Capitol. They are about to approve the election result and declare Joe Biden the winner of the presidential election.

Meanwhile, less than a mile away, the outgoing Donald Trump is speaking. Thousands of his followers are gathered. Power has been stolen, Trump repeats from the rostrum. He urges the crowd to march towards Capitol to protest. A few hours later, 5 people are killed and 141 wounded.

Grimly fascinating

Years-long portrait of dodgy Republican fixer Roger Stone is grimly fascinating in big and small moments, taking on increasing gravity as indictments against the coup-plotting former Prez and his cronies mount (this footage actually included in the Jan 6th Committee proceedings). Very strong recommend.
