Electoral Dysfunction, an acclaimed feature-length documentary, uses humor and wit to take an irreverent—but nonpartisan—look at voting in America. Mo Rocca takes a quest that leads him to Indiana, home to some of the strictest voting laws in the nation. Two impassioned Hoosiers—one Republican and one Democrat—take him inside their efforts to turn out every vote. As he progresses on his journey, he investigates the heated battle over voter ID and voter fraud, explores the origins and impact of the electoral college, critiques ballot design, and examines the case of a former felon sentenced to 10 years in prison—for the crime of voting. Animated segments bring key historical concepts to life, while interviews with reformers and experts highlight efforts to bring greater fairness and uniformity to America’s electoral system. Electoral Dysfunction is a film for voters across the political spectrum who want their votes to count.

Was Brazil discovered or was it invaded? Indians describe the invasion and occupation of their land by the Portuguese. Was Brazil discovered or was it invaded? Indians describe the invasion and occupation of their land by the Portuguese. An alternative history primer for the state of Acre presents an Indigenous history divide it into four periods: the time of the hut, when Indians lived in health and peace; the time of running, when their land was invaded; the time of captivity, when they were used for forced labor on rubber plantations; and the time of reclaiming rights, in which they have regained some of their land and rights to education and healthcare. A Different Story re-assesses traditional ideas about colonial conquest and emphasizes the importance of history as a tool for taking control over cultural identity.
