Join us for the launch of Democracy on Screen — a film series presented as part of the Ford School’s Resilient Democracies initiative. This series celebrates the role of storytelling and creative expression in shaping, challenging, and expanding our understanding of democracy and civic empowerment. Through powerful films, we’ll explore how everyday people and grassroots movements drive change, amplify marginalized voices, and reimagine what democracy can be.

True False Hot Cold (2024) is a documentary TV series by filmmaker Ben Stillerman about climate, beliefs and better conversations. Filmed in Emery County, Utah, a region with high levels of climate skepticism, the series features short episodes with candid interviews and slice-of-life vignettes of local residents, including farmers, ranchers, and coal miners, to understand their perspectives and find common ground. The goal is not necessarily to achieve agreement, but to practice empathy, curiosity, and dignity in conversations across divides.
