The Central Park Five
In 1989, five African American and Latino teenagers from Harlem were arrested and later convicted of raping a white woman in New York City's Central Park. When a serial rapist confessed to the crime, the convictions were overturned, but not until the kids had spent from 6 to 13 years in prison. Ken Burns' documentary recounts the searing story of the crime itself and the subsequent rush to judgment by the police, the media, and a public clamoring for blood, as well as the personal stories of the five boys whose lives were ruined. Played the Cannes and Telluride film festivals. 119min Not Rated
