Synopsis

A documentary exploring the rise of Populism during the US Election in 2016. Combining the contrasting genres of road movie and political documentary, it is a young artist's attempt to understand modern America. With 8000 miles travelled through the US over three months, the film explores the rise of Trump from the very places so many journalists were absent. Through the adventure, a picture of a different America emerges, a portrait composed of the voices of people in motels, factories, homeless shelters, and the streets.
