Melania

''Melania'' is a documentary film directed by Brett Ratner and starring Melania Trump.

It offers a perspective that dissects the crucial twenty days leading up to Donald Trump's second presidential inauguration on January 20, 2025, told from the intimate perspective of Melania Trump, former model and First Lady of the United States. 

Over nearly two hours, the film mixes never-before-seen footage of meetings, preparations, private conversations, and family moments with behind-the-scenes scenes as Melania coordinates the logistical and emotional adjustments involved in returning to the White House. 

The film, co-produced by Melania through her own company and backed by Amazon MGM Studios, provides access to spaces that are rarely shown to the public, revealing both the planning of the ceremony and the personal challenges of once again assuming that highly scrutinized role. 

Directed by Brett Ratner, the project goes beyond pure protocol to attempt to portray a figure that has not been traditionally understood in the media, and highlights her way of managing the transition, her relationship with her family, and her involvement in official events. 

Although it has generated controversy due to its high budget and promotional tone, Melania aims to be a cinematic document about power, image, and the tension between public and private life during one of the most turbulent periods of contemporary American politics.
