| Ghosts...of the Civil Dead |
Acclaimed for its stunning power and rare daring, John Hillcoat and Evan English's
Ghosts.of the Civil Dead is based on events which occurred at the highest-security US Federal Penitentiary, in Marion, Illinois.
Omnipotent, unseen 'authorities' deliberately provoke inmates and guards alike in order to generate violence and murder.
A landmark work of the prison genre that reasonates with contemporary relevance.
