Synopsis
Former Mayor Ed Koch is the quintessential New Yorker. Still ferocious, charismatic and hilariously blunt, the now 88-year-old Koch ruled New York from 1978 to 1989, during decades of grit, graffiti, near-bankruptcy and rampant crime. This film is an intimate and revealing portrait of the intensely private man, his legacy as a political titan and the town he helped transform. The tumult of his three terms included a fiercely competitive 1977 election, an infamous 1980 transit strike, the burgeoning AIDS epidemic, landmark housing renewal initiatives and an irreparable municipal corruption scandal. The personal and political toll of running the world's most wondrous city in a time of upheaval and reinvention are chronicled through candid interviews and rare archival footage.
