Filmmakers Katy Chevigny (Deadline), Maggie Bowman, and Dallas Brennan Rexer marshaled more than a dozen camera crews across the country to shoot this verite documentary about the 2004 presidential election, zeroing in on ordinary voters, campaign workers, political activists, and polling place officials as they went about their business. The resulting mosaic is too anecdotal to make any conclusive points, but its interwoven narratives strongly suggest the U.S. electoral system is hopelessly compromised by red tape (a woman caught in a registration snafu bounces from one polling place to another, trying to find someplace that will let her vote), inequality (black voters on the south side of Saint Louis wait for hours while white voters on the north side sail through), and cheating (a Republican poll watcher in Chicago makes the rounds, busting people for electioneering offenses). 82 min.
