In June 2016, a 20-year-old Englishman named Michael Sandford tried to grab a police officer's gun at a Donald Trump campaign rally in Las Vegas, intending to shoot the candidate. This film traces how a shy young man from Surrey, diagnosed with autism and with a history of self-harm and institutionalization, ended up facing a federal charge that could have put him in prison for decades. Interviews with family, friends, and legal figures piece together his troubled adolescence, an earlier breakdown while working abroad, and the online radicalization that fed his plan. Courtroom material and news footage from the Las Vegas arrest sit alongside more intimate testimony about what his parents and doctors saw coming and what they missed. Rather than treating Sandford as either monster or victim, the film sits with the uncomfortable middle ground: a vulnerable person capable of a genuinely dangerous act, and a case that raises hard questions about mental illness, extremism, and how the two can feed each other.
