Film: “Election Day”
Election Day combines 11 stories – shot simultaneously on Nov. 2, 2004, from dawn until long past midnight – into one. Factory workers, ex-felons, harried moms, Native American activists and diligent poll watchers, from South Dakota to Florida, take the process of democracy into their own hands. The result: an entertaining, inspiring and sometimes unsettling  tapestry of citizens determined on one fateful day to make their votes count.
