  • A still from the film Voice of Democracy shows a dim living room, in which a tv hangs on the wall. The tv displays two older white people, the filmmaker's parents, sitting with a gold lamp in between them. The filmmaker's father looks angry and their mother looks concerned. The tv image is paused on a Youtube window, which reads: "Mom and Dad interview selects," below which a series of other videos are recommended including "The Biggest Snubs of the Olivier Awards," "Top 25 Roller Coasters," and "Food & Wine Festival." Reflected in a mirror below the television are the filmmaker's parents sitting in the same set-up as their image on the television, with the same gold lamp between them. They are looking across the room at the filmmaker, a 30-something white person with a buzzcut and a beard, who looks back at them with their arms folded and legs crossed, with a serious and sympathetic look. Their father is pointing at the television, saying something. In the center of the image, between the mirror and the television, is a caption that reads, "Why?"
