America Reframed

Town Hall | Promo

Set during the Obama era, TOWN HALL casts an unflinching eye at two Tea Party activists from the battleground state of Pennsylvania who believe America's salvation lies in a return to true conservative values. In Katy, we see a political novice rocketed to media stardom. For John, the America he knows is slipping away. TOWN HALL is a time capsule of the burgeoning 21st century right-wing movement.
