A Documentary to Refresh and Recharge your Dialog!
Film Synopsis: While the U.S. is the most flaunted democracy in the world, how do we compare, and what does the rest of the world think of U.S. domestic and foreign policy? Americans are continually told through their media that freedom and democracy are being given to people abroad, but is it true? The documentary looks at seemingly different topics and creates a tapestry of tantalizing information that becomes interwoven and interconnected. Shot in 10 countries, the rest of the world is a wealth of intelligence and acts as a beautiful, yet pragmatic reflection of political power in the United States.
