Election

  • Log in or register to post comments

In an emblematic high school in an American suburb, the political climate intensifies with the arrival of student elections. Tracy Flick, an ambitious and determined student, is ready to take on the role of student council president, which drives her to do whatever it takes to win. However, her fierceness and lack of scruples raise concerns for Jim McAllister, a charismatic history teacher who believes that elections should be a fun and meaningful experience for students. After Tracy unexpectedly runs for office, Jim decides to intervene by supporting an alternative candidate: Paul Metzler, a popular athlete who has recovered from an unexpected injury.

As the campaign unfolds, unexpected events and scandals threaten to upend the tranquil life of the school. Tracy's unconventional methods and Paul’s accidental clumsiness, along with the invaluable involvement of the students, create a hilarious and revealing chaos in which all involved will learn lessons about ambition, morality, and the complexities of leadership.

Amid intrigues, rivalries, and comedic situations, the film offers a scathing and satirical look at politics and adolescence, echoing the struggle for power and authenticity in a social pressure-filled environment. All of this while never losing sight of the hilariously dark side that an election can bring.
