Harvard Law School student Barack Obama, while working as a Associate attorney#Summer associates at Sidley Austin in 1989, tries to win the heart of Michelle Obama, a Associate attorney and his supervisor at the firm, filling time before a community meeting. They visit an Ernie Barnes exhibit at a local art center, attend a community organizing meeting where Obama gives a speech, view a screening of Spike Lee's ''Do the Right Thing'', and have their first kiss outside an ice cream parlor in what winds up being their first date.
