Witch Hunt for Truth

 

By Dana Nachman and Don Hardy Jr. (co-directors of the documentary written by Nachman, Witch Hunt) (from the 2008 Toronto International Film Festival) More than four years ago, in 2004, we met a man in prison. He wasn't the first person in prison blues we had interviewed and he definitely won't be the last. But this man was different - John Stoll was innocent. Half of his teeth were gone and he glanced at us with shifty eyes. But we knew this was the result of 20 years in California's meanest prisons and not the disposition of someone who would molest six little boys, one of them being his own son. Our desire is that film screenings of Witch Hunt will bring the eyes of the world to this story and help change the political landscape of Bakersfield and similar cities and communities. We want audiences to begin to realize that, through their own participation in elections and by serving on juries, they can make sure this kind of injustice never happens again.
