SBS has secured Australian broadcast rights for the acclaimed Hulu documentary Hillary.
Director Nanette Burstein (The Kid Stays In The Picture) spent an astonishing 35 hours interviewing the most influential woman in American politics, Hillary Clinton, for a candid portrait of a life and career in the public eye.
Going back to her childhood in Illinois and education at Yale Law School, Hillary covers plenty of ground, including the Monica Lewinsky scandal, and Clinton’s time as Senator of New York, First Lady and Secretary of State, leading up to her being the first female presidential nominee of her country. The series also features interviews with husband Bill and daughter Chelsea, former President Barack Obama and many more.
With access to behind-the-scenes footage of Clinton’s run to the 2016 presidential election, viewers will see how close she came to defeating Donald Trump at the final hurdle.
Hillary premiered at the Sundance Film Festival and screened at the Berlinale last month.
