Prime Minister plot
"To rule is easy. To lead is hard."
A look inside the life of former New Zealand Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern, chronicling her tumultuous five years in power and beyond as she redefined leadership on the global stage. Ardern reluctantly accepted what she called “the worst job in politics”: leader of the opposition. As prime minister, Ardern led with humanity, compassion and common sense. She didn’t hesitate to implement nationwide gun control reforms after a devastating mass shooting and steered her country through the pandemic by relying on science — even at the cost of her own popularity.

Jacinda Ahern was 37 and pregnant when she unexpectedly became party leader and, a few weeks later (against all odds), was elected the 40th Prime Minister of New Zealand. As part of an international project, she kept a political (film) diary, which forms the basis for this period, which naturally focuses heavily on two key moments: the terrorist attack on a mosque in Christchurch in 2019 and the Covid crisis. A compelling document of one of the most remarkable political leaders of her generation, who went from revered national hero to public enemy number one in an instant.
