Two of the documentaries to earn the most Emmy nominations this year come from Netflix and Higher Ground Productions, the production company established by former President Barack Obama and Mrs. Ob…
For the documentary, Hallgren followed the former first lady from North America to Europe as Mrs. Obama made promotional appearances for her bestselling memoir,“I was just home one day, sitting at my kitchen table, my phone rang, and it was Priya Swaminathan, who runs Higher Ground Productions, the Obamas’ production company,” Hallgren recalls. “She tells me that Mrs. Obama is getting ready to go on this worldwide book tour, and that they thought it could be a great opportunity to document it.
“It was so incredible to be in those arenas with Mrs. Obama during that time…You’re in these crowds where everyone is so thrilled to be there, and just full of this excitement,” Hallgren recalls. “The whole idea for the film was having this extraordinary, once-in-a-lifetime experience and, ‘How do I get an audience to feel the way that I’m feeling right now?’”
There is a prescient section of the film where Mrs. Obama discusses the heartache of being in office when so many unarmed African-American people were killed by police, in custody, or by armed white civilians: Trayvon Martin, Michael Brown, Sandra Bland, among numerous others.
