Written and directed by Oslo-based multidisciplinary artist David Chocron, this alternative reality drama imagines an extraordinary intervention on the eve of Donald Trump's election defeat in 2020. On that fateful night in the Lincoln Bedroom, a sleepless Trump encounters a tall lawyer from Illinois who charms and challenges him, ultimately wrestling the truth out of Trump in an attempt to avert a constitutional crisis. The two-hander explores issues of race and identity, inspired by Abraham Lincoln's 1837 Lyceum Address, in which Lincoln warned of the potential for a dictatorship in America. The production features video design and music by Chocron himself.
