Only last year, inmates wrested an historic $12-million settlement from the state, and that bittersweet victory spurred a new round of agitation by guards and their survivors.
This stirring documentary features extensive interviews with Attica survivors, including former inmate Frank "Big Black" Smith.
Also interviewed is Mike Smith, who was a guard who was taken hostage and subsequently wounded by police fire.
Elizabeth Fink, the attorney who headed the inmates' decades-long legal battles against New York State, is also interviewed. Other interviews include those with New York Times columnist Tom Wicker, Congressman Herman Badillo, Assemblyman Arthur Eve, and civil rights lawyer William Kunstler.
GHOSTS OF ATTICA offers the definitive account of America's most violent prison rebellion, its suppression, and the days of torture that ensued. Using exclusive, newly uncovered video of the assault, interviews with eyewitnesses who've never spoken before on-camera, and footage of inmates and hostages throughout their battles against the state, this film unravels one of America's deepest cover-ups, and shows how the legendary prison riot transformed the lives of its survivors.
