The legendary musical behemoth Laibach conducted its first tour of North America in 1989, two years before the disintegration of its mother country, Yugoslavia. They returned in election year 2004 to a very different America after the attack on the World Trade Centre and the advent of the war against terrorism. Divided States of America documents the tour which kicked off in Washington, D.C. only one day after the election results had been announced and captures much of the traumatic post-election atmosphere in a country deeply divided
by two opposite political and cultural poles.
