Cinema Wednesdays - Marina De Toro
Since 2013, James De Monaco has surprised with his saga American Nightmare an annual purge to regulate crime and unemployment in the United States. For one night a year, American citizens are allowed to commit all crimes and express all negativity. Once the twelve hours have passed, crimes committed during the purge are not prosecuted, and life returns to normal. In this fourth film, director Gerard McMurray presents the origins of this murderous tradition, which took place in a town on an isolated island in the USA.
One film too many
The «New Founding Fathers» took charge of the United States and decided to set up an experimental project aimed at lowering the crime rate. The new concept was the brainchild of sociologist May Updale, and her ideas quickly caught on with the new US government. The only problem is that Dr. Updale and the government don't see eye-to-eye on this experiment, which is merely a psycho-social test for the sociologist, whereas the politicians see it as in the country's economic interest.
