Punishment Park
Within this documentary, U.S. prisons are in capacity, and President Nixon declares a state of emergency. All offenders, many of whom have been connected into this antiwar movement, are now given the choice of spending or jail time three days at Punishment Park, where federal authorities will hunt for sport them. The latter option is invariably chosen by the offenders, but learn that, between the desert heat and the police , their own odds of survival are slim.
