* Duration: 8 hours and 5 minutes *

Soon to be a five-part HBO series, starring Woody Harrelson and Justin Theroux

The true story of 'THE WHITE HOUSE PLUMBERS', a secret unit inside Nixon's White House, and their ill-conceived plan to stop the Pentagon Papers, and how they led to Watergate and the President's demise.

In a secluded office in President Nixon’s White House in 1971, Egil “Bud” Krogh was summoned to a closed-door meeting by his mentor - and a key confidant of the president - John Ehrlichman. Expecting to discuss the most recent drug control program launched in Vietnam, Krogh was shocked when Ehrlichman handed him a file and the responsibility for the Special Investigations Unit, or SIU, later to be notoriously known as “The Plumbers.”

The Plumbers’ work, according to Nixon, was critical to national security: they were to investigate the leaks of top-secret government documents, including the Pentagon Papers, to the press. Driven by blind loyalty, diligence, and dedication, Krogh, along with his co-director David Young, set out to handle the job, eventually hiring G. Gordon Liddy and E. Howard Hunt to break in to the office of Dr. Fielding, a psychiatrist treating Daniel Ellsberg, the man they suspected was doing the leaking. Krogh had no idea that his decisions would soon lead to one of the most famous conspiracies in presidential


'THE WHITE HOUSE PLUMBERS'
is Krogh’s account of what really happened behind the closed doors of the Nixon White House, and how a good man can make bad decisions, as well as the necessity of maintaining your integrity. Including the story of how Krogh served time and later rebuilt his life,
'THE WHITE HOUSE PLUMBERS'
is gripping, thoughtful, and a cautionary tale of the ends justifying the means.
