Four pages of parchment, written in 1787, have become the most revered and yet most divisive document in the United States. The U.S. Constitution was designed to be a framework for a nation, but today, it is the central battlefield for America's most bitter cultural and political wars. How can a text written with quills and ink still govern a world of artificial intelligence and social media?

"The Unfinished Constitution" is a feature-length documentary by America Narratives that explores the profound and often irreconcilable conflict over how to read America's founding document. We don't just look at what the Constitution says; we investigate the fierce intellectual war over what it *means*.

In this documentary, we will dissect:

► The Genesis of Compromise: A look inside the heated debates of the 1787 Constitutional Convention, revealing a document born from messy, practical compromise, not divine consensus.

► The Two warring Philosophies: A deep dive into the core conflict between "Originalism" (the belief that we must adhere to the founders' original intent) and "Living Constitutionalism" (the belief that the document must adapt to modern society).

► The Modern Battlegrounds: We analyze how these competing philosophies clash over today's most contentious issues, including the Second Amendment (gun rights), the First Amendment (free speech in the digital age), and the Fourteenth Amendment (equality and privacy).

► The Ultimate Referee: An exploration of the Supreme Court's immense power and how the political battle for control of the court is, in fact, a proxy war for the soul of the Constitution itself.

Join us on a journey into the heart of American law and identity to understand why the nation's oldest arguments are still its most important.
