A Storm Foretold

synopsis

USA, January 6, 2021. US congressmen are gathered in parliament at the Capitol about to approve the election result and declare Joe Biden the winner. Less than a mile away, Donald Trump is urging the crowd to march towards the Capitol. A few hours later, 5 people are killed and 141 wounded. With Trump's political godfather, Roger Stone, as its central character, the film documents how Trump's presidential period had to find its logical endpoint with The Storm on the Capitol. The director set out to follow the 'Make America Great Again' movement and ends up a close witness to the historical events at the center of American democracy.
