Synopsis

"A biting comedy about a voting system so efficient, even Moscow is impressed."

From America, With Love is set in the final minutes of Election Day at a nearly empty polling place in Anywhere, USA. As the clock ticks toward closing, two election workers - one - a veteran to election work who takes her job very seriously, the other wry and shaped by her experience of voting in the Soviet-era system - prepare to shut down their polling location.
In the last few minutes left, Jaime rushes in, ready to cast his vote. There’s one catch though...he’s not in the system. What follows is a darkly comic unraveling of our voting processes, where provisional ballots, looping election hotline calls, and contradictory voting instructions expose the fragile machinery behind our systems.
With humor and absurdity, From America, With Love takes a satirical look at the rituals of voting and how systems that are designed to support us, can begin to feel like they were designed to exclude us.
