Ransom '79
Watch Trailer"An envelope with no return address. A phone that never stopped ringing. The summer of 1979 was supposed to be about disco and freedom, but for a small town, it became defined by a single, terrifying demand. This 2024 documentary meticulously reconstructs the case that fractured a community and redefined local justice. Through archival footage and new interviews, the genre piece examines the blurred lines between desperation and calculation. The echoes of that long, hot season still resonate today."
