A gripping examination of how the brutal murder of two human beings became the first nationally televised real-life drama; a flashpoint for debate, disagreement and disillusionment; and an allegory for tensions that continue in American society today. The People vs OJ Simpson was about wealth, power, sex and race. It was the first of its kind: trial as entertainment for the masses. But it was also a watershed in Americans' perception of their legal system, and a transformative event in the racial and social history of the country. When it was over no one was punished, and deep fault lines of bigotry and bias had been exposed in white and black America. For some it was a judicial catastrophe. For others it was merely confirmation that you get the kind of justice you can afford. Using only contemporaneous archive, much of it unseen before, and no interviews or narration, the story unfolds as a tight, compelling, true life drama. Without hindsight or analysis, OJ Simpson: Caught on Camera introduces a new generation of viewers to the stranger-than-fiction story that captivated the collective national conscience.
