Client 9 documents the dramatic rise and fall of New York Governor Eliot Spitzer. As NY's Attorney General, Eliot Spitzer prosecuted America’s largest financial institutions and some of the most powerful executives in the country. After his election as Governor, many believed Spitzer was on his way to becoming the President. When The New York Times revealed Spitzer had seen prostitutes, the “Sheriff of Wall Street” fell quickly from grace. With unique access, the film explores the hidden contours of hubris, sex, and power.
