Film Description

A faked documentary about ten soldiers confined on a US Navy ship and the three guards who beat and humiliate them. 'A raw slice of new American cinema filmed on an off-Broadway stage by Jonas and Adolfas Mekas with such brutish authenticity that it won a Venice festival grand prize as best documentary. Part drama, part polemic, with shockwave sound and nightmare air that suggests Kafka with a Kodak, the movie does exactly what it sets out to do - seizes an audience by the shirtfront and slams it around from wall to wall for one gruelling day in a Marine Corps lockup.' Time Magazine, September 1964.
