The story
The film mixes stylized recreations of fire science with cinema verité coverage of efforts to review Willingham's case—by the Texas Forensic Science Commission and within the Texas court system. It also features in-depth conversations with Willingham defense counsel David Martin, who maintains his client's innocence vociferously. A press conference with Willingham's ex-wife Stacy Kuykendall on the courthouse steps of a Court of Inquiry hearing into the case is also captured, cut against the court's review of the evidence against Willingham.
