Gun Fight

Columbine. Virginia Tech. Tucson. Over the past dozen years, a string of deadly shootings has pockmarked our nation's soul and psyche, as guns--both licensed and unlicensed--have found their way into the hands of psychopaths intent on meting out death. This eye-opening film sheds light on the not-quite black-and-white issue of private gun ownership in America today. In the wake of the 2007 Virginia Tech massacre, two-time Oscar(R)-winner Barbara Kopple traveled the country to canvass gun advocates, members of anti-gun organizations, and ordinary civilians--all of whom share distinct and often visceral opinions on the gun debate and the Second Amendment.
