The horror story above is no speculation. The facts are on film. A religious persecution the like of which has not been seen in this country since the Mormons were hounded from Illinois. The world is about to get a wake up call. It has no political ax to grind.
Narration is minimal.
Most of the story is told via the voices and actions of the participants. David Hamilton's haunting music score effectively ties these disparate elements together and gives consistent emotional context to an otherwise rather chaotic presentation of the events. The movie shows several gut-wrenching photos of mutilated bodies. However, these are not chosen to shock, but to reveal crucial evidence of the causes of death. Even more disturbing are the home videos, by and of the Davidians, which show their utter ordinariness.
