Wag The Dog
Trailer
The film tells of a sexual scandal for an important candidate trying to take on a new experience in his work to divert the citizen's attention from that scandal by waging a fictional war with Albania. He repeatedly tries the media to focus on the issue away from his scandal while hiring a Hollywood producer to create a false context for the war.

April 12, 2002 Amusing as it is, Wag The Dog does what it purports to sat irize -- the bark is real but the teeth aren't.
