Sideways World

Split: A Divided America is a powerful and provocative documentary that journeys across the country to confront one of the most pressing issues of our time: the growing political and cultural divide in the United States. Directed by emmy-nominated filmmaker Kelly Nyks’, the film blends emotional, street-level interviews with sharp insights from influential figures such as Noam Chomsky, Tucker Carlson, Jesse Jackson, Al Franken, Amy Goodman, Nicholas Kristof, and Robert Putnam, offering a panoramic view of the forces fueling polarization. Rather than delivering partisan answers, Split presents a bold, unfiltered look at how we got here—and what it might take to heal. The New York Times calls it “a sobering, clear-eyed look at the forces pulling America apart,” while The Washington Post praises it as “a vital conversation-starter in an age of echo chambers.” PocketReviews raves: “Minutes in, I was hooked… any documentary that gets you talking… is a documentary that is doing its job… FOUR STARS!” Urgent, engaging, and deeply human, Split is essential viewing for anyone seeking to understand the soul of a divided nation.
