The Plot Against America
Freedom is never completely won. But it can be lost.
Created by Ed Burns, David Simon
On HBO
A tense, intimate alternate-history drama that watches fascism encroach on an American Jewish family's ordinary life, grounded in domestic vulnerability rather than spectacle.
An alternate American history told through the eyes of a working-class Jewish family in New Jersey, as they watch the political rise of Charles Lindbergh, an aviator-hero and xenophobic populist, who becomes president and turns the nation toward fascism.
