Trump, My Father and Me

On January 6, 2021, Guy Reffitt was among hundreds of Donald Trump supporters who stormed the Capitol to protest Joe Biden's victory in the US presidential election. Shortly thereafter, this Texas father was arrested by the FBI, tried, and imprisoned based on statements made by his son, Jackson, a 19-year-old young adult who watched with horror as his father became radicalized. Over four years, the documentary follows the evolution of this family, which, like the country itself, is torn apart and no longer understands itself.
