What a dynamo- nice to see someone near the end of life take a hold of it and make the most of it.

Doris “Granny D” Haddock laced up her sneakers and walked across America to rally against the influence of big money in elections—making both friends and enemies inside the Washington beltway...when she was 90 years old. Now 94 and still fed up with politics as usual, she jumps at an unexpected chance to run for U.S. Senate in the state of New Hampshire. A tale of doggedness versus dollars, grit against greenbacks, RUN GRANNY RUN is an unlikely portrait of a remarkable activist and an exploration of our fragile democracy in the corporate age.
