The Uncivil War: America Divided

Uncivil War - America Divided is a timely piece for 2024 in that the events that happened in 2020 are still happening today. With it being an election year when the film enters theatrical and festival distribution, it's the perfect time to reflect and have conversations.

The story revolves around two friends who disagree when events take place in 2020. The narrative itself follows a hero's journey with some pivots that do not divert from the overall arc of the story. Daniel Roebuck brings a delightful and validating character to the conflicted David Siracusa who is struggling to find balance from an entrepreneurial life and his personal life. Musetta Vander is a breath of fresh air as a woman who brings perspective to the troubled character along with Bronsonn Taylor as the main supporting actor. The ensemble itself really leaves the audience with questions to ponder within themselves.

Whether you agree or disagree with the overall content of the film, this is a story to look at and think within yourselves and leave with conversations among friends and family. Politics are tough and many do not know how to balance it with overall dialogue. This film is an eye opening way of looking into it. I encourage you to give it a try.
