"Perhaps the most devastating portrait of contemporary social inequality to appear in an American documentary" – New Yorker
Ken Burns’ critically acclaimed documentary tells the story of the infamous Central Park Jogger case in which five black and Latino teenagers from Harlem were wrongly convicted of raping a white woman in New York City’s Central Park in 1989.
