Stars Against Trump – America’s New Resistance

Media interest in US president Trump has been extraordinary, throughout. However, while most of the coverage seems to concern either scandals or social and economic changes, cultural developments tend to be less noticed. This new and important ZDF documentary brings exactly that to the foreground: the voices of American musicians like Jack Johnson and John Legend, writers like T.C. Boyle and Paul Auster, Hollywood stars like Robert Redford and Jane Fonda. The creative and intellectual America defines this big TV project in interviews between New York and Hollywood taken since April, when Trump had been in office for 100 days.
