This documentary tells the story of Nicola Sacco and Bartolomeo Vanzetti,
Italian immigrants accused of murder in 1920, and executed in Boston after
a notoriously prejudiced trial. Eighty years later, the story continues to
have great resonance, as America once again grapples with issues of civil
liberties and the rights of immigrants.

Readings and commentary by John Turturro, Tony Shalhoub, Howard Zinn,
Studs Terkel and Arlo Guthrie.
