The Exonerated
Adapted from the highly acclaimed off-Broadway play, this film tells six true stories of death row inmates proven innocent and released after serving years in prison. Based on court documents and interviews, America's judicial system and the validity of the death penalty are questioned. As Benjamin Franklin said, "it is better that a hundred guilty men go free than one innocent man be executed." Compelling and controversial.
