Description:

For two centuries, the U.S. Congress has been a vital yet often misunderstood part of American life. Ken Burns offers a detailed, thoughtful, and frequently moving look at the history and potential of this distinctive institution. The acclaimed film uses historical photographs and newsreels alongside compelling contemporary footage and interviews with David Broder, Alistair Cooke, Cokie Roberts, Charles McDowell, and others. It chronicles the people, events, and debates that have shaped the first 200 years of Congress and, consequently, the nation itself.
