WHAT IS DEMOCRACY? – Trailer

A vast, timely, and often chilling documentary into the idea and practice of democracy, ranging from Ancient Greece and Renaissance Europe to civil rights, fears of voter fraud, and the spectre of authoritarianism.

If we want to live in democracy, we must first ask what the word even means.

Directed by Astra Taylor – 2018
