A true-crime story so gripping, devastating, and ultimately unforgettable that it easily trumps any thriller Hollywood has to offer this year. --Village Voice.

Customer Reviews

Everyone should watch this movie
I watched this film the last time they showed it on MSNBC. It has an agenda that becomes apparent towards the end. For the most part however it is a devastating look into the lives of a family that has been through hell. I am a 27 year old construction worker and consider myself to be emotionally sound. That being said, this movie made me cry almost continually. You can't help but feel so much empathy for the principal characters. I would be leery of anybody who didn't tear up when watching this movie. If you don't cry for these people you are incapable of feeling for others. It's that powerful.

A Justice System That Denied Justice to the One Who Needed It Most
I have never seen a documentary have such an impact on me. The Justice system that failed Zachary's grandparents, and Zachary, was a travesty gone wrong in every possible way. I never saw such ludicrous laws that allowed this to happen. I spent 25 years working in Federal Corrections and worked with virtually every LEA in our country. Kurt poured out his heart and soul to this child and did so without holding anything back, telling Zachary the truth about everything. Several of us were discussing it and we're still in a state of disbelief that this could happen. My heart goes out to Andrew's parents and his co-workers at the hospital, who loved him like a brother. Justice has been served but it took a difficult battle to get the laws changed, to ensure this never happens again.

First Class - Must See!!!!
A brilliant work that tells a truly compelling and amazing story that is riveting from start to finish. If you don't get emotional or shed tears watching this, you need to be checked for a pulse! One of the best documentaries I've ever seen. You Must See it!
