“…a worthy—and sadly timely—remembrance of a singular event whose ghosts continue to haunt us.”
—Inkoo Kang, Washington Post

The latest documentary from Stanley Nelson, co-directed with Traci Curry, is an astonishingly vivid and complete portrait of one of the darkest chapters in American history, the brutal and racist suppression of the Attica Prison Rebellion in 1971. The film is even-handed in its approach and uses interviews, archival photos, footage and audio recordings to tell the whole story for the benefit of posterity.
