War Game: Screening & Discussion

Join Atlanta Civic Circle for a special screening of “War Game.”

About the documentary: A real-life political thriller set on January 6, 2025, “War Game” imagines a nation-wide insurrection in which members of the US military defect to support the losing presidential candidate, while the winning candidate and his advisors—played by an all-star roster of senior officials from the last five administrations—war game the crisis in the White House situation room. They have six hours to save democracy as the country teeters on the brink of civil war.

Why we’re screening this film: Our nonprofit newsroom is committed to strengthening local democracy through in-depth, accessible coverage of elections, policy decisions, and community concerns.
