Sympathetic to the political activities of the Black Panther Party, a chance meeting and subsequent dalliance with its spokesperson Hakim Jamal (Anthony Mackie) brings the actress to the attention of the FBI. Assigned to monitor Seberg’s activities with the goal of ruining her public reputation, an agent (Jack O’Connell) soon questions the true motives behind J. Edgar Hoover’s powerful agency. Directed by Benedict Andrews (Una, National Theatre Live’s A Streetcar Named Desire).
