What's the plot?
Documentary ‘West of Memphis’ examines a tragic miscarriage of justice that saw three American teenagers spend 18 years each in jail for a crime they didn’t commit.

Following the 1993 murder of three eight year old boys in a small Arkansas town, a flawed police investigation sent the three to prison and one of them, Damien Echols, to death row. After a protracted David-and-Goliath legal battle, they were finally freed. To tell their story, Echols went on to produce ‘West of Memphis’ along with award-winning filmmaker Amy Berg.

Amazing film

I've been following this case for a long time and this stunning documentary bravely fills in lots of gaps but as always with films detailing this case, there are still so many unanswered questions.

I urge everybody to see this - and to read Damien Echols' book, Life After Death.
