A documentary about Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and others advocating for the Green New Deal performed poorly at the box office.
Data from Box Office Mojo shows the film titled, “To the End,” raked in under $10,000 from the theaters.
Box Office Mojo’s description of the film states, “Stopping the climate crisis is a question of political courage, and the clock is ticking. Over three years of turbulence and crisis, four young women fight for a Green New Deal, and ignite a historic shift in U.S. climate Politics.”
Watch the trailer for the film below:
Director Rachel Lears spoke with Deadline about its premiere at Sudance last January.
“When the film premiered at Sundance, it was right after Senator Joe Manchin killed the Build Back Better bill. And there was at that point no particular prospect of major climate legislation passing,” Lears said in October.
She added, “But as the gears continued churning for a few months, they did reach a deal in July and we knew right away we’ve got to reedit the film, we’ve got to shoot what we can to end the story this way.”
