January, 2019. In the House Minority Leader’s office, two brilliant and relentless women collide. "N" is an old guard powerhouse with decades of leadership under her Armani belt. "A" is a young, working class rising star, a once-in-a-generation talent elected to take on the DC machine. What follows is a battle for the soul of the Democratic party, and for democracy itself. N/A is a fiery and funny peek into the halls of power that asks what it means to lead, and what it takes to save a country.
