Laffey's "Fixing America" Premieres at Park Theatre

After leaving office, former Cranston Mayor Steve Laffey has been hard at work on a grassroots documentary entitled "Fixing America."

He traveled across the country, putting on the journalist's hat to make the probing documentary that takes a hard look at the country's financial problems and the effect on everyday working people.

The film is "an emotional and inspiring grassroots documentary shows, laying bare what everyday Americans realize; the political elites of both parties have destroyed the country financially," according to a release. "Fixing America takes the viewer on an extraordinary journey across the byways of America where seemingly ordinary, yet truly exceptional folks bare all and offer solutions to fix this great country."

The film premiered at the Park Theatre this past weekend. Did you attend? What will you take away from the film? Let us know in the comments.

Laffey interviews scholars, journalists and notable figures that include Dylan Ratigan, Grover Norquist, Steve Forbes, Lew Ward and Lawrence Kotlikoff. With Producer Steven Skoly, Laffey intertwines those conversations with the voice of the American people, who want their voice part of the discussion on how to fix America.
