$What happens to Canada when American democracy fractures? Prime Minister Mark Carney is navigating that question in real...$

What happens to Canada when American democracy fractures? Prime Minister Mark Carney is navigating that question in real time and Democracy Under Siege puts it on screen. Directed by Oscar-nominated filmmaker Laura Nix and anchored by the razor-sharp cartoons of two-time Pulitzer Prize-winner Ann Telnaes — who resigned from the Washington Post rather than have her work censored. The film features Heather Cox Richardson, Rep. Jamie Raskin, and some of the most respected political minds working today. Reporters sans frontières / Reporters Without Borders / RSF and PEN Canada have been raising the alarm. This film makes the case. Presented by New Mountain Films at Vancouver International Film Festival theatres.
📍 Lochmaddy Studio Theatre — July 10

A cartoonist walks into the Washington Post. She draws the truth. Her editors kill it. She resigns. Everything that moment says about the state of American democracy is at the heart of Democracy Under Siege. Directed by Oscar-nominated Laura Nix and featuring the two-time Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoons of Ann Telnaes, the film brings together Heather Cox Richardson, Rep. Jamie Raskin, and leading scholars to ask a question that matters just as much in Canada as it does in the US.
Reporters sans frontières / Reporters Without Borders / RSF and PEN Canada know the stakes. As does Prime Minister Mark Carney. And so do you!
New Mountain Films is proud to bring this one to Vancouver International Film Festival theatres.
