A Storm Foretold: Roger Stone and Die (2024x106)

Date de diffusion: Juil 30, 2024

In October 2018, with Donald Trump's political godfather Roger Stone as his central character, film-maker Christoffer Guldbrandsen set out to follow the Make America Great Again movement. Where was the world’s most powerful democracy heading, and why were so many Americans seemingly turning on each other? Fuelled by Stone’s sloganeering, the film follows the movement to a violent climax on the steps of the US Capitol on 6 January 2021, where lives were lost and hundreds were injured. The 2020 election ended in vicious disarray, but where does Guldbrandsen think the future lies? 'As to the events I witnessed, I believe they were only the beginning. A warning of what is yet to come.'
