The Congressman

A frustrated congressman from Maine (Treat Williams) is pilloried by the media when he refuses to recite the Pledge of Allegiance during a government session. Soon after, he heads to a remote island in his district, where he gets involved in a heated dispute among its residents over lobster-fishing rights. Directed by Jared Martin and Robert Mrazek, the latter of whom served as a member of Congress from 1983 to 1993.
