As the debate over the role that guns and mental health play in mass killings continues to rage, this short film by Errol Morris explores a famous early 90's shooting spree that could have easily been torn from today's headlines. Postal supervisor Bill Kinsley wisely fired Thomas McIlvane over his untamed temper and took steps to keep his other employees safe, but they weren't enough to stop his bloody massacre. In the weeks that followed the shooting, Kinsley's life became a nightmare as the victims' families and the media blamed him for the terrible tragedy. A gripping exploration of anger, violence, and revenge.
