Sat - August 23rd: Considering Democracy: A film to get people talking.
Show Time 3:00
Suggested Donation $5; Students FREE
http://consideringdemocracy.com Synopsis: What does the rest of the world think of U.S. domestic and foreign policy? While the U.S. is perceived as a beacon of democracy, how does it compare to other democratic nations? Americans are continually told through their media that freedom and democracy are supported abroad, but is it true? Shot in ten countries, Considering Democracy weaves together seemingly different topics into an interconnected tapestry of information. People from around the world act as a mirror for Americans to see a reflection of political power in the United States. "'An iron hand in a velvet glove', this documentary offers a cinematic mirror that allows U.S. citizens to see ourselves through the eyes of the world. The image you see in this well done and powerful documentary might surprise you." - Godfrey Reggio, Director Koyaanisqatsi Running Time 57:45, NTSC, 4:3, USA 2008
