Trouble in Paradise is a real-life drama unfolding in the chaotic landscape of Florida politics. Motivated by a sense of civic responsibility, five Floridians volunteer on campaigns, run for office, sue the state, and revisit the disturbing facts and unanswered questions of the historic 2000 election that changed their lives. Over two years following the election, some laws have changed, new voting machines have been installed, and yet the problems mount, the allegations and lawsuits continue. Boston-based filmmaker Laurel Greenberg examines how the people of Florida have reacted to this ongoing political upheaval and questions measures to present further corruption of the electoral process.
