Francesco Vezzoli once wrote that “Washington, D.C. is like the Hollywood of worldwide politics.” In “Democrazy,” a diptych of films that explore presidential public relations with two campaign advertisements, Vezzoli casts actress Sharon Stone and French public intellectual Bernard Henri-Levy as Republican and Democratic candidates named Patricia Hill and Patrick Hill. Replete with slogan-heavy visions of the future, Vezzoli’s satire of American politics rings hilariously and uncomfortably true.
