Join or Die: A Film About Why You Should Join a Club is a film about why you should join a club — and why the fate of America depends on it. In this feature documentary, follow the half-century story of the unraveling of America’s social fabric through the journey of legendary Harvard social scientist Robert Putnam, whose groundbreaking “Bowling Alone” research has illuminated the powerful connection between ordinary community bonds and our health, happiness, economy, and politics. Flanked by influential fans and scholars as well as inspiring groups building community in neighborhoods across the country, join Bob as he shows why more people becoming “joiners” could hold the solution to our personal and national problems.
