Wis.Community will be offering an opportunity to see the new PBS/POV documentary Dark Money before the national showing of the film on PBS.

Dark Money, a political thriller, examines one of the greatest present threats to American democracy: the influence of untraceable corporate money on our elections and elected officials. The film takes viewers to Montana—a frontline in the fight to preserve fair elections nationwide—to follow an intrepid local journalist working to expose the real-life impacts of the U.S. Supreme Court's Citizens United decision. Through this gripping story, Dark Money uncovers the shocking and vital truth of how American elections are bought and sold. Official Selection, 2018 Sundance Film Festival.

The film will be shown at Simply Dunn, E4606 County Rd C, Downsvillle, WI 54735 on September 19, 6:30 PM. Dark Money will be shown nationally on PBS on Oct. 1, 2018. Admission to the film is free. This event is a collaboration with POV, the award-winning independent non-fiction film series on PBS www.pbs.org/pov
