Original Intent: The Battle for America

This documentary delves into the idea that the U.S. Constitution should be interpreted as it was understood by the Founding Fathers in 1789. It contrasts this viewpoint with the belief that the Constitution's meaning evolves over time. The film highlights the argument that the far right utilizes originalism to support a conservative political agenda that threatens civil rights and various personal freedoms.

Featuring interviews with notable figures such as Robert Bork, Alan Dershowitz, and Edwin Meese, the film presents a critical examination of how originalism influences contemporary legal and political landscapes. With a runtime of 55 minutes, it provides a compact yet thought-provoking exploration of a pivotal issue in American jurisprudence.
