Story

For one recount lawyer in Florida, the political became personal in the wake of the 2000 presidential election.

Todd Elmer takes us behind the scenes of the fracas, as a renowned game theorist elaborates on the boundaries of contest, and archival audio brings us back to the days of hanging chads.

The Rules Will be Different was commissioned for the 2005 ShortDocs: Stories about Games.
