Sovereign
AroView: A first-rate crime drama based on the true story of a self-declared ‘sovereign citizen’ (Nick Offermann) who embroils his son in a battle of principles with government agencies before a tragic altercation with law enforcement.
An important film for our times about the lethal cocktail of radical ideology, indoctrination and gun culture, and fathers and sons on both sides of the ‘law’ who all have a cross to bear. ★★★★
“Sovereign benefits greatly from its empathetic, non-exploitative approach to its controversial subject matter. It’s uncomfortable but necessary viewing.” ~Frank Scheck, The Hollywood Reporter
“Christian Swegal’s feature-length directorial debut is like staring into a national wound.” ~Rocco T. Thompson, Slant Magazine
“Offerman’s Jerry Kane is a villain for the ages, a man with a point of view that more people share than we’d like to believe.” ~Roger Moore, Movie Nation
