When the Vice President of the United States suddenly dies, Senator Laine Hanson (Joan Allen) is chosen by the President (Jeff Bridges) to be the first woman to hold the office. The selection however meets with strong opposition from a powerful political adversary, Senator Shelly Runyon (Gary Oldman) who orchestrates a dirty tricks campaign, which dredges up the sexual misadventures of her past. Her confirmation hearings set off a firestorm of controversy as shocking scenes from Hanson’s past are revealed, threatening her personal life as well as her political future. Laine Hanson has what it takes to be a heartbeat away from the presidency. Now she must prove she has the stomach for what it takes to get the job.
