Foreign Entanglements is part of “We the Voters: 20 Films for the People” which is a nonpartisan digital slate of 20 short films designed to inform, inspire and activate voters nationwide with fresh perspectives on the subjects of democracy, elections and governance in the lead up to the 2016 elections. In Foreign Entanglements, Canadian comedian David Milchard comes down to ask Americans why they care so little about foreign policy. Turns out we’re not really sure what foreign policy is! We don’t realize how international relations impact us here at home.
