Film Screening Event - "The Death of Us"

february 19 2019

The Death of Us is a quiet contemplation on a range of cases in which the death penalty was pronounced, ending in execution, commutation to life sentence, acquittal or even pardon. Speaking only to those who have been on death row or those very closely involved with the cases, the film engages in complex conversations on crime and punishment, revenge and justice, popular rhetoric and personal experiences. The film screening was followed by a discussion moderated by filmmaker Vani Subramanian and Project 39A Executive Director, Dr. Anup Surendranath.
