VIDEO: Full Trailer for Netflix's Original Film BARRY About President Barack Obama

As Obama's presidency draws to a close, experience the inspired story of where it all began with the debut of the Netflix original film BARRY on December 16, 2016. Watch the full length trailer below!

Debuting at the 2016 Toronto Film Festival to critical acclaim, Barry is a nuanced, artistic exploration of a pivotal year in the life of the 44th President of the United States. A young Barack Obama, known to his friends as "Barry," arrives in New York City in the fall of 1981 to begin his junior year at Columbia University. His experiences over that pivotal school year lay the foundation for his views on race, government, and what it means to be an American.

Director Vikram Gandhi (Kumaré, HBO's "Vice"), a Columbia University alumni, approached fellow alum Adam Mansbach (author of "Go the F**k to Sleep") to help tell this origin story, and from that collaboration Mansbach penned the script.

The film stars Australian newcomer Devon Terrell in a breakout performance as Barry, and features a strong supporting cast including Ashley Judd (Divergent, Double Jeopardy), Jenna Elfman (Friends With Benefits, Big Stone Gap), and up-and-comers Anya Taylor-Joy (The Witch), Jason Mitchell (Straight Outta Compton), Ellar Coltrane (Boyhood), and Avi Nash (Learning to Drive, "Silicon Valley").
