Alexandra, daughter of Nancy Pelosi, has been working as an documentary filmmaker for HBO for more than 20 years now and the theme of her newest work does not surprise. Turning the camera on several Jan Sixers, she asks them about that day, and whether their belief in Trump and the conservatives has changed following their jail time. Her way of being in the film, though, is very present: physically and with her voice. Pelosi places herself not just as an interviewer, but as an interlocutor, probing their statements and more often than not exclaiming “You still believe in X?!” in one way or another. The Insurrectionist Next Door is colloquial, it’s comedic tragedy with a hope to bridge the gap between two opposing political beliefs: a synecdoche for America as a whole.
