Set during the events of the 1964 New York World's Fair, The Making of Mr. Lincoln follows a group of engineers, colloquially known as "imagineers," working at the Walt Disney Company to create an audio-animatronic replica of the 16th president, Abraham Lincoln. As their morals conflict with their ambitions, each of them has to consider whether the benefits of progress are worth the costs, as Walt Disney continues to push his company, and his vision, into the future.
