Director: Vadim Jean
Documentary Feature | USA | 84 MIN
Narrated by Samuel L. Jackson, the film tells the ongoing story of the case of three extraordinary men: Herman Wallace, Albert Woodfox and Robert King known as the Angola 3 who have spent almost a century between them in solitary confinement in Angola, the Louisiana State Penitentiary. All three men appear to have been targeted by the prison authorities for being members of the Black Panther party and for fighting against the terrible conditions and systematic sexual slavery that was rife in the prison. Herman and Albert are still held in solitary confinement after thirty-seven years.
