Synopsis
Through a meaningful hail of bullets, flying glass and bloodshed, this film poses many profound questions about watching and responding to TV violence. Its images and sounds are disturbing and provocative, forcing viewers to examine what, why and how they watch TV, and to examine the effects of television violence on themselves and others. A comprehensive discussion guide, written by Neil Anderson of the Association for Media Literacy, is included.
