    Description
    A machinima style animation, this film uses film noir generic conventions to present a relationship between Hillary Clinton and John McCain. Here, Clinton plays the femme fatate character, willing to stop at nothing to get her way, while McCain protrays the duitiful sap she tricks into murder. The voices were captured from 2008 U.S. Presidential nomination debates.
