Punishment Park
Within this literary documentary, U.S. prisons are at power, and President Nixon declares a state of emergency. Allnew prisoners, most of whom are attached to this antiwar movement, have given the option of spending or jail time days in Punishment Park, by which they will be hunted for sport by governments. The prisoners opt for the latter option, but learn that, between the police and the desert heat, their own odds of survival are slim.
