Trama

Il documentario diretto da Amy Berg è il racconto di una lotta disperata contro il tempo per impedire alla giustizia americana di condannare, in via definitiva, tre uomini innocenti. Il film raccontato da uno dei ragazzi incriminati, Damien Echols e sua moglie Lorris Davis, porta alla luce nuove prove sull'omicidio di tre bambini di otto anni avvenuto nel 1993 nella piccola cittadina di West Memphis, Arkansas, e mostra la sofferenza di tre ragazzi accusati ingiustamente e scarcerati dopo 18 anni di prigione.
