His film In the King of Prussia was about the Plowshares Eight, a group of Christian anti-war activists on trial for breaking and entering into a weapons plant, where they damaged missile nosecones, poured vials of their own blood onto missile plans, and burned other files. The film starred the actual defendants as themselves. See more »
