Spoiler-Free Synopsis

Read MoreCollapse

Werner Herzog's feature-length documentary exploring a triple killing in the United States focuses on the fates of the two men convicted of the murders: Michael Perry and Jason Burkett. Fifty-year-old nurse Sandra Stotler, her son Adam and his friend Jeremy Richardson were all killed in October 2001 - seemingly for keys to Stotler's car. Burkett was given a life sentence for the crime and Perry was given death. This film features a number of interviews with Perry, who denies reponsibility for the killings, only eight days before his execution. It examines why people kill - what circumstances and what personal qualities drive them to the act - and also why the state feels compelled to do the same in response. Herzog makes no secret of the fact that he is opposed to capital punishment, but the message of the film is not a political one. He is far more concerned with the human cost of killing: both for the victims and for the perpetrators.
