“Something felt very wrong, and I needed to find out why.” Six months prior to the American presidential elections in 2016, director and entrepreneur Jim Stern set off on a trip across the country. Driven by the idea of getting to know billionaire Donald Trump's potential voters, he has visited voters in red states in order to hear their stories along with their answers to his nagging questions. How is it possible that so many citizens remain loyal to the controversial candidate in spite of his highly questionable statements? What are their hopes and what drives them in their daily life? AMERICAN CHAOS brings long-overlooked cultural and social differences of a divided society to the surface.
