The kingmaker

Evers, Frank, 1965- (film producer.). Greenfield, Lauren, (film director.). Kirkegaard, Per K., 1961- (editor of moving image work.). Pook, Jocelyn, (composer (expression)). Marcos, Imelda Romualdez -- 1929- (on-screen participant.). Showtime Documentary Films, (publisher.).

An extraordinary look into the controversial political career of Imelda Marcos. As the former first lady of the Philippines, Imelda Marcos is best known for her opulent lifestyle, but it was her behind-the-scenes influence of her husband's presidency that rocketed her to the global political forefront. A journey through the Marcos family's long history of corruption, extravagance and brutality, this documentary tells a cautionary tale of a powerful female leader whose questionable sense of reality divided a nation.
