Democracy is ...

VOTE FOR "DEMOCRACY IS ...":

by Tino Schwanemann (Germany / United States of America)

The film is a controversy on democracy. Is our society really democratic? Can everyone be part of it? Or is the act of being part in democracy dependent to the access on technology, progression or any resources of information, like philosophers like Paul Virilio or Jean Baudrillard already claimed?
The film is an inventory of our surrounding reality and its goal is to initiate discussions on democracy all over the globe.

Besides, the U.S. Department of State denied this film from taking part in a public film discussion on U.S. American democracy. Does anyone have any suggestions why? :-)

unprätentiös schön

Die Musik ist sicherlich Geschmackssache. Mich macht sie einerseits agressiv, wobei ich mich frage, ob der Künstler das denn nicht bezweckte, andererseits passt sie gut zum Thema und der Aussage des Films. Meiner Meinung nach ein intelligenter und sehr gut gemachter Beitrag, der seinesgleichen sucht. 5 Sterne mindestens!

democracy is the tyranny of the majority over the individual...a mockery of liberty, indeed

Any teacher who tells a student that we are a democracy is not fit to teach.

Any politic who says the smae should not be trusted.

The united states is an oligarchy!

I really hope that is spelt right!

Democracy is a serial killer-> Bush,Gulfwar,...

Im sentimental, if you know what I mean I love the country but I cant stand the scene And Im neither left or right Im just staying home tonight Getting lost in that hopeless little screen But Im stubborn as those garbage bags That time cannot decay Im junk but Im still holding up This little wild bouquet Democracy is coming to the U.S.A. Leonard Cohen, Democracy
