After a year of Donald Trump, this new film will make you miss Barack Obama more than ever

Remember 2016, before the whole world went a bit crazy?

Cast your mind back, if you can, to a pre-Brexit, pre-Trump time. Back then, we didn’t wake up to the news every morning fearing the worst, and the President of the USA wasn’t risking nuclear war by bragging about the size of his ‘red button’.

Most of the time everything just felt incredibly… calm, didn’t it?

Now, new documentary The Final Year offers an insight into those happier times, taking a closer look at the final year of Barack Obama’s presidency.

The film offers clear insight into the inner workings of Obama’s government as he prepares to hand over the White House to his successor.

It’s true what they say: you don’t know what you’ve got until it’s gone, and the film is sure to make you miss Barack Obama more than ever before. Watch the trailer above and see for yourself.

The Final Year is released in cinemas on January 19, and is also available to buy on iTunes.
