Flatland: The Movie begins with the 2-dimensional Arthur Square awaking from a dream of strange, glowing symbols. He lives with his wife, Arlene Square, and his curious granddaughter Hex, a hexagon. He rushes Hex to school and along the way they discuss the laws of inheritance: how each new generation of Flatlanders, beginning with triangles, gains a new side until the shapes become indistinguishable from circles. They also discuss how a citizen's shape affects their job, with triangles performing menial labor and circles ruling Flatland in the priest class. They witness a cruel incident where a Circle Priest arrests a slightly irregular octagon child, prompting Hex to yet again wonder about what happened to her pentagonal parents. Arthur tells her that he will tell her someday, and rushes her off to school.

Issu d'un milieu modeste, Ronald Reagan incarne le «rêve américain» : son charisme lui ouvre bien des portes, à commencer par celles d'Hollywood, où il commence sa carrière d'acteur et de syndicaliste, avant de se convertir à l'anticommunisme et de se hisser jusqu'à la Maison-Blanche. En forgeant un conservatisme moderne, qu'il a popularisé auprès des masses, il laisse un héritage politique et idéologique colossal, ainsi qu'une image contradictoire. Pour bien des Américains, leur patrie reste d'ailleurs aujourd'hui le «pays de Reagan»
