91 %: A Film About Guns in America
The debate over guns in America is one of the prevailing public health issues of our times. In the wake of the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre, a 2013 Gallup Poll revealed that 91% of Americans support comprehensive background checks - a factor that may have prevented thousands of gun violence tragedies nationwide. Yet divisive political rhetoric and congressional gridlock perpetuates a flawed system that impacts communities across the country.
91% speaks to the majority of Americans who support comprehensive background checks by moving beyond divisive political rhetoric. The film shares personal accounts of lives impacted by this broken system and explores the disconnect between voter mandates and congressional inaction.
