American Blackout

The documentary takes up elections in America. The period it deals with is 2000 to 2004. The film argues that a pattern repeats across those two elections. The pattern is that some voters cannot cast a vote. The account follows a member of congress. The woman is Cynthia McKinney. McKinney was elected from Georgia. She looked into the failures in those elections herself. In the same period she raised another matter. She publicly questioned the government about the attacks of the eleventh of September. Those questions drew a reaction. She then found herself inside a similar process. The documentary runs the two lines together. Stephanie Tubbs Jones also appears in the ninety two minute documentary. Ian Inaba’s American production was finished in 2006.
