‘Democracy at Risk’ film fest brings political history to Chicago

 

The League of Women Voters is teaming up with the Gene Siskel Film Center to produce its inaugural “Democracy at Risk” film festival. From historical features to documentaries, the series takes you back in time to political stages full of controversy, conflict and fights for justice.

Reset sits down with two people involved to discuss the series and what the films reflect about our political institutions.
