In the King of Prussia

Overview

A gripping dramatization centers on the trial of the "Plowshares Eight," a group of Christian anti-war activists. In September 1980, they made headlines by invading a General Electric weapons facility in King of Prussia, Pennsylvania. In a bold act of protest against nuclear arms, they splashed their blood on classified missile plans, burned documents, and damaged missile components. This direct-to-video narrative blends reenactments with real news footage from the trial. Remarkably, the activists portray themselves and, upon completing the filming, return to court to face the consequences of their actions.
