ABOUT THE DOCUMENTARY
“BROKEN: BEYOND DIVIDE” – “A Family, A Nation and the Fight for Democracy” is a documentary that explores how political polarization is tearing apart families, friendships, and communities. Through real testimonies, in-depth analysis, and a deeply personal journey, we seek to understand how we got here—and, more importantly, how we can rebuild dialogue. This is not about taking sides; it’s about listening to heal.
As the world experiences growing ideological fragmentation, this film examines how even the closest families can be divided by politics.
Told from the perspective of a family exiled in the United States, the documentary dives into the experiences of those who have witnessed the erosion of democracy firsthand. Through intimate interviews, archival footage, and expert analysis, it uncovers the historical patterns and psychological mechanisms that fuel polarization.
With a balanced approach, Divided We Stand aims to spark dialogue and encourage reflection on the future of democracy—not only in the U.S. but around the world.
OUR HISTORY
The origin of BROKEN: BEYOND DIVIDE comes from a personal story that reflects a global reality. Our director, Ingrid, grew up in a home where political conversations often ended in arguments, where every news story had two versions, and where fear of the opposing perspective was a daily reality.
When her family emigrated from Venezuela to the United States, they thought they had left behind division and conflict. However, they soon realized that their new home held a different kind of war—an ideological battle that was also tearing apart families, friendships, and communities.
This documentary was born out of the need to understand why we have become so radically divided and whether it is possible to find common ground. Through real voices, expert insights, and firsthand testimonies from those experiencing this divide, Divided We Stand seeks to spark an urgent and necessary dialogue.
