The entire American voting system and all forms of media are centralized through “USIDent,” a network controlled by a tight-lipped governmental matriarch who sits and watches all the events unfold on a wall covered in monitors. Santaros spends half the film fiddling with his fingers a là Mr. Burns of “The Simpsons,” nervous as a squirrel despite...
