Somebody Has to Shoot the Picture

As the execution date looms, Raymond Eames, a former drug dealer, makes a final plea: to die by lethal injection rather than the electric chair.

A small-time drug dealer, sentenced to death for a policeman's murder, requests his execution be photographed. A jaded Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer is sent to capture the event, accompanied by a Time magazine reporter, who together investigate the circumstances of the murder in a town where emotions run high.
