“Dark Money“ is a political thriller that examines the influence of untraceable corporate money on our elections and elected officials; one of the greatest present threats to American democracy. The film takes viewers to Montana — a frontline in the fight to preserve fair elections nationwide — to follow an intrepid local journalist working to expose the real-life impacts of the US Supreme Court’s Citizens United decision. Through this gripping story, “Dark Money” uncovers the shocking and vital truth of how American elections are bought and sold. This Sundance award-winning documentary is directed/produced by Kimberly Reed (“Prodigal Sons”) and produced by Katy Chevigny (“E-Team”).

Special Guests: Kate Dean, Jefferson County Board of Commissioners District 1 Representative; Lindsey Schromen-Wawrin, Port Angeles City Council member and attorney; and Linda Brewster, Vice Chair of Fix Democracy First
