Into the Abyss

A thought-provoking documentary explores the complexities of capital punishment, shedding light on the human stories of a prisoner on death row and those affected by his crimes.

The documentary "Into the Abyss" delves into a triple murder that took place in Conroe, Texas in 2001, where two friends, Michael Perry and Jason Burkett, committed the heinous crime under the influence of alcohol and drugs. The film focuses on conversations with the inmates and those impacted by the crime, rather than rehashing the details of the event, and instead explores the motivations behind why people and the state engage in killing.
