The Campaign
Amnesty International the Netherlands wanted to raise awareness about the Death Penalty. We did so by sharing a film, together with Amnesty’s annual Death Penalty Report, launched on the 1st of April. The film tells the true story of Anthony Graves. Anthony was wrongly convicted and spent 18,5 years on Death Row. The film opens with a shot of Anthony sitting in his cell. It’s his final day on Death Row. We see what he went through for 18,5 years. We feel his desolation and capture the sound of emptiness. We hear the horrible things that happened while we see wards patrolling and inmates losing their mind. Anthony continues to talk about his life as we close with a shot of the wardens, guiding Anthony on the green mile towards his end. The screen fades to black as his words conclude: “This is my last day.” Anthony then appears again. Now standing in a park in his hometown, as we see him speak the last words: “..And the beginning of many more.” A happy ending, as a text explains how Anthony escaped death. The film closes with a call to action: Death to the Death Penalty.
