Democracy in America

Documentary
Marlena Cooper is the first black Democratic candidate in the Republican fiefdom of Gregg County, East Texas. Democracy in America tells the story of the electoral campaign of Marlena and her Republican opponent Jay Dean, attempting to paint a picture of two communities that seem to live in parallel realities. In the first electoral campaign in 30 years that sees a Democratic candidate against the Republican Party, the characters and their stories will explore the themes of white superiority, abortion, firearms and, reconnecting to Toqueville's Democracy in America, the fundamental role played by religion in the young American democracy to emerge. A journey into the bowels of Texas, into the true heart of America, in search of the reasons, to discover the roots of the present and future of the United States.
