Democracy
A dystopian satire of representative democracy, authoritarianism, and moral corruption.
Democracy is a political satire, set in an alternative version of Britain ruled by a totalitarian regime that maintains control through the illusion of democratic choice. There are two official parties under the control of the state, and it is mandatory for every citizen to vote for one of these two parties in every election.

Callum has decided not to vote in the upcoming election, a decision that will have serious consequences for himself and his whole family…
