An unctuous documentary-style short film focusing on Vice President Kamala Harris is coming to theaters less than a month before the national election.
Titled KAMALA, the film directed by Samir Zakir and Gerard Pizarro, which is largely uncritical of the presidential candidate, will focus on bringing the “untold stories and personal sacrifices” of Harris’ life to fans.
The film, which will be released on October 25, will feature commentary and interviews from CNN’s Bakari Sellers and MSNBC’s Michelle Bernard, who have both been very supportive of the Democratic Party candidate.
Viewers will also be able to see Harris as a “main narrator” and watch an exclusive interview about her presidential campaign.
Titled ‘KAMALA’, the film directed by Samir Zakir and Gerard Pizarro will focus on bringing the ‘untold stories and personal sacrifices’ of Harris’ life to fans.
‘KAMALA is a short documentary film that captures Kamala Harris’ journey as an underprivileged person, weaving her meteoric rise with themes of resilience and her commitment to justice and the well-being of all,’ Zakir told DailyMail.com.
He added: ‘The purpose of this film is to tell her story through a unique lens: to humanize Kamala Harris by diving into her underdog story, told by underdog filmmakers.
“Her unique approach links her personal and professional journey with her commitment to improving the well-being of all. It’s a compelling and meaningful message!”
A short trailer for the film also features clips from the vice president’s childhood, her Indian and Jamaican roots and her interviews with celebrities including Drew Barrymore and Mindy Kaling.

The documentary will also feature rare interviews with Harris’ family and “some members of her inner circle of close friends.”
News of the short film comes days after the Golden Globe nominee was seen portraying Republican candidate Donald Trump in a new clip from the controversial biopic, The Apprentice.
Stan, 42, transformed into a younger version of the businessman and former president for a scene with Jeremy Strong as Trump’s disgraced (and eventually disbarred) attorney Roy Cohn.
The film follows Trump in the 1970s and 1980s as he attempts to establish his real estate empire by leveraging the holdings of his father, Fred Trump.
The film, which will be released on October 25, will feature commentary and interviews from CNN’s Bakari Sellers and MSNBC’s Michelle Bernard, who have both been very supportive of the Democratic Party candidate.
In addition to the United States, the short film about the life of the vice president will also be released in India and the United Arab Emirates.
The Apprentice is directed by Iranian filmmaker Ali Abbasi, who shot the critically acclaimed Persian-language crime thriller Holy Spider (2022).
Oscar-nominated actress Maria Bakalova will play Trump’s late ex-wife, Ivana Trump.
The Apprentice hits theaters on October 11, exactly two weeks before KAMALA.
In addition to the US, the short film on the life of the vice president will also be released in India and the United Arab Emirates.
