From the Premiere
After two and half years of filming and production, People vs. Politics premiered on April 17, 2026 at the 2026 Washington, DC International Film Festival (also known as Filmfest DC) as an Official Selection in the “Justice Matters” category—a program of films sparking meaningful dialogue and action around urgent social issues.
Into the Classroom
School Without Walls, Washington, DC — April 23, 2026
An educational cut of People vs. Politics played for an AP Government class in Washington, DC. In the Q&A that followed, students asked questions about ranked choice voting, semi-open primaries, and what these reforms could mean for DC and the rest of the country.
Community Screenings
Grow Democracy DC, Washington, DC — June 4th & 5th, 2026
