Campos' Christine ain't no Plymouth Fury.








Film Synopsis : Christine is an ambitious news reporter, in Sarasota, FL, circa 1974. Relentlessly motivated to succeed, she knows she has talent, but being a driven career woman in the 1970s comes with its own challenges, especially when competition for a promotion, love for a coworker and a tumultuous home life lead to a dissolution of self. With ratings in the cellar, the station manager issues a mandate to deliver juicier and more exploitative stories, a story firmly at odds with Christine’s serious brand of issue-based journalism. To accomplish her goals, she must overcome her self-doubt and give the people what they want.

Christine's last tv news broadcast recorded on film and on dead air has been missing for decades and is considered to be a 'holy grail'. 3-2-1-BYE.
