Watching: Electoral Rage

Overview

Marco, an 18-year-old, is preparing to vote for the first time in a presidential election. When a polarized runoff forces him to choose between two deeply unpopular candidates, he reluctantly supports the “lesser evil,” believing it’s the only way to protect his future and that of his girlfriend, Romina. But as the campaign intensifies and violent political rhetoric takes hold, Marco begins to change. Fear of losing Romina and the pressure of the moment push him down a darker path. He grows increasingly aggressive and intolerant, alienating his friends and ultimately driving Romina away. In the end, the outcome of the election no longer matters as he has already lost what mattered most.
