Film Independent Members, you and a guest are invited to watch Re-Election in the Film Independent Presents Online Screening Room, powered by Vision Media, followed by a pre-recorded conversation with the cast/crew of the film, moderated by Jenn Wilson (Senior Programmer, Film Independent).

High school haunts everyone, in one way or another. For Jimmy Bauer (writer/director/producer Adam Saunders), it was losing the race for class president during his senior year back in 1995 that caused him to drop out. Now a 40-something underdog stuck working in a memorabilia store owned by his dad (TV comedy icon Tony Danza), Jimmy decides to go back to school for his missing class credits — and win the election he’s sure will make his life right. But after 30 years, things have changed a bit, and with the help of his new Gen-Alpha friend Noa (Bex Taylor-Klaus) and former classmate-turned-girlfriend Ama (Nathalie Kelley), Jimmy learns that it’s not how we start a journey that matters — it’s how we finish it.

From Picturehouse, Re-Election was released on October 10.
