Imagine a world where the government is not just prepared for another insurrection but actively simulates it to understand and anticipate threats to democracy. This is the premise of “War Game,” the latest simulation-documentary co-directed by Jesse Moss and Tony Gerber, which delves into the intricacies of a potential nationwide crisis.

Premiering on August 2 in theaters, “War Game” follows a group of national-security experts, including former senators and prominent media pundits, as they stage an elaborate war game. This exercise is designed to foresee another insurrection similar to the one that occurred on January 6, 2021. The film places these experts in a highly realistic scenario where the U.S. military is divided, and the nation teeters on the brink of civil war.

The documentary's narrative unfolds on January 6, 2025, during a mock government scenario where the country faces a contested 2024 election. Former Montana Governor Steve Bullock takes on the role of the President, while former senators like Heidi Heitkamp and Doug Jones serve as his advisors. Together, they navigate a crisis in a simulated White House Situation Room, with only six hours to save democracy.

Jesse Moss, known for his acclaimed documentary “Girls State,” brings his expertise in depicting political simulations to this new feature. “War Game” continues Moss's tradition of exploring the dynamics of governance and power through immersive and thought-provoking storytelling. The film's premiere at Sundance was met with praise, with IndieWire describing it as a “skillful argument for why competent experts should be put in charge of things.”

The documentary not only provides a thrilling look at a potential future but also serves as a stark reminder of the importance of vigilance and preparedness in safeguarding democratic institutions. The compelling performances by real-life political figures lend authenticity and urgency to the narrative, making it a must-watch for political enthusiasts and documentary lovers alike.

As we approach the release date, the anticipation for “War Game” grows. Will you be watching this gripping depiction of democracy under threat? Share your thoughts in the comments below and make sure to catch “War Game” in theaters starting August 2.
