Vice

This is the story of one man who changed the whole world. Being not the most visible figure, he managed to become one of the most influential people on our planet. His name is Dick Cheney. He has a wonderful gift of persuasion, excellent oratory and a lively, brilliant mind. This man could achieve everything he wanted - he achieved this, and maybe more. When US President George Bush Jr. offered Dick the position of the country's 46th vice president, Mr. Cheney added only a few of his conditions - he specified what would be under his control (army, foreign policy, energy, state apparatus). Thanks to this decision and many other successful actions, Dick Cheney became the most successful vice president of the United States. Read more The film is based on real events.
