This short documentary follows the narrative of the November 2016 Nicaraguan elections through the eyes of activist Omar Perez, who is working to encourage participation and transparency in the democratic process. What unfolds is a demonstration of Daniel Ortega's and the Sandinistas’ influence on democracy in Nicaragua, and Omar’s hope for the future.

Part of a long-term project about the country, Ortega and his controversial interoceanic canal.
