“For all the chaos that Telnaes confronts in her editorials, and Nix in turn conveys through the passionate interviewees, the film lets the circumstances that enabled both elections serve as a cautionary rallying cry to mobilize audiences as the next elections near.”

“With DEMOCRACY UNDER SIEGE, writer-director Laura Nix has done a great job and performed a public service with her sweeping film, which details the rise — and return — of Trump but, more importantly, traces the political machinery back to its roots.”

“DEMOCRACY UNDER SIEGE feels like someone standing on the beach as the tide is going out, yelling to everyone, ‘Get to higher ground! A Tsunami is coming!’ while they remain nonchalantly reclined in their beach chairs, sipping piña coladas, muttering, ‘Relax, you’re over-reacting!’”

“Nix has made a bombshell film that is the equivalent of smelling salts under the noses of an engaged global citizenry”

“The documentary exposes the complex history and challenges of the world's most influential political system at one of the most extreme and decisive moments in American democracy's nearly 250-year history.”

“A captivating documentary that uses the sharp wit and insightful art of Pulitzer Prize-winning cartoonist Ann Telnaes to explore the challenges facing US democracy in the lead-up to the 2024 US presidential election.”

“Along with other top political commentators, Telnaes lays bare the complicated history of the world’s most influential political system, providing a clear and concise overview of America’s alarming shift to the right under Trump.”
