It is considered to be the deadliest school shooting, and the second deadliest attack on a school in United States history after the Bath School disaster.This movie traces the life of Dylan and Eric before the massacre, during the massacre, until their deaths. The film also explores the tragedy that befalls upon the victims families.

What the press would say:

A compelling and gripping story that has struck me in my heart and the thought of death on innocent children. A visual feast of delight yet the emotions and the malice overwhelm you and take you into another room, away from the ungrateful society of today. Never have I seen a film with such caliber like this film, a certain Oscar winner and hopefully a certain classic.
