Boys State

Boys State
This political coming of age examines the wellbeing of the American democracy through an unusual trial. A thousand 17-year-old boys gather at Texas to make a representative government. Great thinking idealists collide with street smart dirty tricks as four boys of diverse backgrounds try to establish a governor.

From nefarious internet memes, underdog victories, dramatic debates and impeachment threats; the story reminds us that democracy is not a spectator sport. Above all, the film holds up the mirror to our divided country that reveals civic obligations and profound truths. In every case, this film is intended for all ages.
