This two-part dramatic mini-series chronicles the coming of age of Canada's 15th prime minister and the forces that shaped his brilliant mind and fierce political will. Trudeau II paints an intimate portrait of a young man developing the skills that eventually lead him to the country’s top post. The drama examines his battle against the suffocating pressures of conservative Quebec during the '30s and '40s. The mini-series details Trudeau’s pivotal influences before becoming prime minister: the death of his father, his battles with the Catholic Church and then-Quebec Premier Maurice Duplessis, his encounters with René Lévesque, and his involvement with the controversial political magazine Cité Libre. Even as he made his mark politically, Trudeau left more than a few broken hearts in his wake. Essential for students of Trudeau, Canadian Studies and those seeking a better understanding of Canada during the '50s and '60s.
