About Capitol Barbie
Up and Coming University Graduate Dolly Golightly lands her dream job working on Capitol Hill in Washington DC. Dolly quickly ruffles the feathers of her cutthroat boss, Congresswoman Melissa Lopez-Gaffney, vying to become the nation’s first Latina president. When the Congresswoman learns a controversial secret from Dolly’s past, she fires Dolly to avoid political fallout, leaving Dolly homeless thousands of miles away from home fending for herself. Through the adversity Dolly’s resiliency thrives, but will she have the staying power?
Capitol Barbie is inspired by true events of creator Riley Del Rey’s former tenure in the halls of Congress in Washington, D.C. The cast and crew are all from New Mexico and was shot In Albuquerque, NM on location at Amy Biehl High School, a former post office.
