'Here, it really was between the fog of war and the fog of disinformation, trying to figure out what was right not just for today but for tomorrow. It was definitely a tense six hours.'In the Washington D.C. hotel room, Bullock along with others from both sides of the political spectrum, sat for six hours, and lived through a simulated insurrection. The meeting was captured by the film's directors Tony Gerber and Jesse Moss.
