Om denne film

Represent interweaves the stories of three women on both sides of the political aisle who share the singular goal of improving their community through public service. Myya attempts to spark a youth movement and unseat the incumbent mayor of Detroit. Byrn, a farmer working with her mother in Granville runs for township trustee, but in doing so is places in opposition with the only other woman in the office. Julie walks a tightrope between her identities as a Korean immigrant and Republican candidate for State Representative in a liberal Chicago suburb. Through the nuances of local politics, we see the system failings and unsung heroes at the heart of America's smallest elections.
