Experience the powerful documentary War Game in an exclusive screening at the National Constitution Center, followed by an insightful panel discussion on the challenges and complexities of protecting American democracy in an increasingly polarized world.
The event will take place on Wednesday, October 16, from 6:00 PM to 8:30 PM (doors open at 5:30 PM), at the National Constitution Center (525 Arch St, Philadelphia, PA 19106).
War Game sweeps audiences into an elaborate future-set simulation that dramatically escalates the threat posed by the January 6, 2021 insurrection. The film follows a bipartisan group of U.S. defense, intelligence, and elected policymakers spanning five presidential administrations as they participate in an unscripted role-play exercise. Portraying a fictional President of the United States and his advisors, they confront a political coup backed by rogue members of the U.S. military in the wake of a contested 2024 presidential election. This immersive experience underscores the critical need for collaboration across political divides to address national security threats and uphold the integrity of our democratic institutions.
