It's a well made film and doesn't try too hard to persuade the audience the director's views. Through a series of interviews, it does a good job of describing humans.
There is the death row inmate in complete denial, you can see on his face how he thought he still can get away with something. There is the woman who fell in love with an inmate, you can see how blindly in love with someone she barely touched. There is the father in regret that he was never around because he was always in jail. There is the executioner who eventually snapped. There is the tough guy who showed a glimpse of sorrow. There is another guy who decided to stay out of trouble. There is the victim's families' suffering.
Nothing was answered because that's the reality. I didn't change my mind about death penalty coming out of the movie. But, I got to know some humanity. It's why I watch movies.
