The movie which premiered at the SXSW Festival pictures a three-term US president in Washington DC battling secessionist forces from California and Texas.

The movie stars Kirsten Dunst as a journalist travelling through a broken, dystopian nation. The FBI has been disbanded, and military drone strikes launched on US citizens. Political elites and Congress are more divided than ever, but polarisation among the public is"overstated," said Howell. On the other hand, author Stephen Marche believes"the United States is a textbook case of a country headed for civil war" just not in the way depicted by the movie.

In Marche's book, retired US Army colonel Peter Mansoor says a new conflict"would not be like the first civil war, with armies manoeuvring on the battlefield." It offers little exposition and focuses on the horrific daily reality for American citizens and journalists.
