Review

This wonderfully counterintuitive doc about the 2008 Democratic National Convention focuses not on the political movers and shakers but on the everyday civil servants, bureaucrats, and average folks who hover around the event. Offers a generous portrait of the true face of modern democracy—if Robert Altman made documentaries, this is what they might look like.
