Kelleher’s storytelling is both poignant and well-structured, effectively conveying the injustice faced by Sacco and Vanzetti, who, despite a lack of evidence connecting them to the crimes of armed robbery and capital murder, became victims of a politically charged trial. The rise of xenophobia in the United States during that time is contextualized within the broader narrative, shedding light on the socio-political climate that fueled their arrest and conviction.
The documentary effectively captures the international support garnered by Sacco and Vanzetti, emphasizing the profound impact of their story on public consciousness. Kelleher’s adept writing and editing bring this historical tale to life, providing viewers with a well-crafted and emotionally resonant portrayal of a significant chapter in American history. The film stands as a testament to the power of storytelling in shedding light on past injustices and fostering awareness.
