Democracy for Sale is part of the Epix America Divided series featuring actor Zach Galifianakis.

In 2017, Working Films partnered with Divided Films to organize dozens of screenings across the state that mobilized tens of thousands of residents to demand campaign finance reform, environmental protection, and an end to racist gerrymandering.
