As Viktor Orbán dismantles Hungary's democratic institutions, three women--a journalist, a politician, and a nurse--work tirelessly to fight for their country's soul. A chilling expose of far-right nationalism and an inspirational beacon of resistance.

So while the film is an informative tale of international politics, it’s also a warning sign and rallying cry for action back home.

A new documentary about Viktor Orban, the authoritarian Hungarian prime minister who is treated as something of a hero in some American right-wing circles.

This riveting account of Orbán’s usage of free and fair elections to gain power, then ultimately destroying democracy by doing everything possible to undermine every democratic institution, should be required viewing by every U.S. citizen.

DEMOCRACY NOIR depicts exactly what Trump and his cronies are attempting to accomplish in the U.S. It is a documentary that all Americans concerned about our own democracy should see.

Interesting and educational...and very sad and frightening, as the same thing is happening here in the USA. A must-see for everyone, I think.
