A Day in the Life of America

On July 4, 2017, actor and director Jared Leto sent 92 film crews to all 50 states -- plus Washington D.C. and Puerto Rico -- to capture Americans in the midst of life, liberty, and their particular pursuit of happiness. The resulting cinematic portrait captures one day in the life of America, complete with happiness, heartache, compassion, fear, celebration, contemplation, pride, and distress.
