This is a film about legalized corruption and a government dominated by big money – also known as the United States. The Design of a Broken System, produced by Democracy Chronicles, aims to answer simple questions: Why doesn’t American democracy work? What is the root of Washington’s dysfunction? What can we do to fix it?

After going around the country, we found one fundamental issue that precedes all others – the issue of election reform. Change is very difficult in the electoral arena, and for good reason. Why change the rules of the game if you’re the only one who can possibly win?

The Design of a Broken System aims to take the issue of ELECTION REFORM and present it in a concise way that analyzes the current system and proposes alternatives which are advocated by our country’s leading analysts and researchers. With your support, we can continue our mission, and follow candidates and officials as they move their way through our political system in hopes of reforming it for future generations.

Our goal on Kickstarter is $1,776, but we have an end goal of $15,000 in order for this film to be produced and distributed to a wide audience. With your help, we can reach this goal and bring to you a film concept that up until this point, has been repeatedly buried by mainstream media.

We thank you for your support, and with your help, we can reshape the political dialogue in this country.

Thank you again.
