Summary
Filmed at Missouri's Potosi Correctional Center, this documentary film explores a typically unseen aspect of capital punishment: the meticulously clinical procedures by which prisoners are prepared for death by lethal injection. The film focuses on three men who are on death row awaiting their execution date and the prison officials, including the superintendent, who are charged with killing them. Includes a re-creation of the highly professional 24 hour routine that leads to an execution.
