Pete Buttigieg for a documentary on his campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination, Moss wasn’t sure if the campaign would go very far or if he’d even get a film out of it.
But there were many surprises in store.“I was really surprised, but maybe I shouldn’t have been, that his campaign took off,” says Moss, the director of Mayor Pete, which has been screening at film festivals and starts streaming on Prime Video November 12.“I knew Pete was an ascendant star in the Democratic Party even though he was just mayor of South Bend,” Moss says, noting that Buttigieg had made an unsuccessful run for national party chair before launching his presidential bid.
