Yelena M @Yelena766 06/11/2023 Wow! What an incredible story. The human rights violations of Lee need to be investigated. Violent criminals don't end up in such situations. Very well made documentary! Must see! See more Brian S @RT46679039 04/26/2023 This feels as though the creators tried to have the story told as slowly as possible. It really isn't interesting enough to warrant the run time. See more Read all reviews
