The Swamp

HBO has recently delivered a slew of interesting documentaries. Last week, Brett Rapkin’s revelatory film The Weight of Gold explored the mental health challenges Olympic athletes often face. Back in July, Alex Winter’s captivating movie Showbiz Kids investigated the highs and lows of children in show business. Later tonight, HBO’s newest documentary, The Swamp, premieres on the network.

Directed by Daniel DiMauro and Morgan Pehme, the film follows three Republican congressmen — Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Thomas Massie (R-KY), and Ken Buck (R-CO) — as they try to answer the president’s call to “drain the swamp.” Providing a unique behind-the-scenes look at the inner workings of the Washington political scene, The Swamp premieres tonight on both HBO and HBO Max. Here’s how to watch live.
