What does America need? That is the question asked to more than 500 Americans in the documentary What America Needs - From Sea to Shining Sea. Filmmaker Mark Wojahn traveled, post 9/11, from New York City to Los Angeles by train, bus and motor home, visiting 9 states to ask Americans from all walks of life one simple question. The responses were sometimes simple, sometimes complex, sometimes funny, and as varied as the individuals and characters he met.
Wojahn’s personal journey is woven throughout the film, yet he resists influencing the responses of the interviewees, including their interpretation of the question, “What does America need?” It is a journey worth taking with him.
