May 15th In Paris

From acclaimed producer Barbara de Fina (Goodfellas, Casino) comes the true story of May 15th, 1848, when protesters in Paris finally pushed the French political establishment to let them have a popular vote to elect their ruler, only to see the outcome of their revolution backfire and turn against their own interests when the demagogue Louis-Napolon Bonaparte seized the reins of power through the ballot box and turned France into a dictatorship.
