1979

In May 1979, Progressive Conservative Joe Clark was elected as Canada’s youngest ever Prime Minister. By Christmas 1979, it looked as though it was all over. But Clark is young and idealistic, resolute on making his mark in office, and governing for the whole country, not just his own party supporters. Faced with a critical decision, his colleagues – including his predecessor Pierre Trudeau – take the opportunity to steer him in completely different directions…European Premiere. As the UK heads into what will almost certainly be another General Election year, this fast-paced satirical political comedy is a dazzling insight into the rapidly changing world of Conservative party politics.
