This film records a correspondence with a prisoner now awaiting the date on which he will be put to death (as of June, 2013). We have come to the point where an old technology is better equipped to express a primitive practice. A contraption like the electric chair, or a technology like the optical soundtrack, retains a perverse beauty also observable in those old lynching photographs taken in small towns of the American West.
