Synopsis

National Theatre Live: Best of Enemies

In 1968 America, as two men fight to become the next president, all eyes are on the battle between two others: the cunningly conservative William F. Buckley Jr., and the unruly liberal Gore Vidal. During a new nightly television format, they debate the moral landscape of a shattered nation.

Ollie

The story revolves around Pierre who is 13 years old when he loses his mother. He’s a shy boy who lives only for his passion: skateboarding. Thirty-something Bertrand is a seasonal worker on Pierre’s father’s farm. United by their shared passion of skateboarding, they look to one another for the strength to rebuild and assert themselves, and to try to face up to their impossible losses.
