Sweet Land of Liberty
Written By: Nolan Williams
Directed By: Liam Amick

After the 1879 Maine Gubernatorial election, incumbent and declared winner Alonzo Garcelon calls for the aid of famed Civil War general Joshua Chamberlain to quiet the mobs that claim the election was stolen and that Daniel Davis should’ve won. Based on real events, this story is about what happens when rumors of a stolen election are more than lies told by a demagogue and actually have substantial evidence to back them up. It explores the tensions that exist behind the scenes as political rivalries become life-or-death and people consider just how far they’ll go for power.
