CGiii Comment
America’s McCarran Act is designed to control “subversive activity”. It allows the US government to jail dissidents – including communist sympathisers, draft dodgers and student activists – with little to no pretext. With this scarily realistic – and scarily prescient – mockumentary, Spheeris presents a world where McCarran is enforced, and exploited.
There was a trailer...but, it has since disappeared.
