Gunmen: Government Politics and American Culture

gunmen: An electronic store erupts into chaos as four gunmen storm the premises, according to NOW Magazine. Rick Gomez, Sacramento Police Departments' top negotiator, realizes he needs to talk down the gunmen and keep everyone safe, all while juggling government politics. The film is inspired by the true story of the 1991 Good Guys Electronics Store siege in Sacramento, California, the largest hostage siege negotiation ever attempted in the United States. The gunmen leader doesn't want to hurt anyone, but his brother is a different story. A Clear Shot examines a bizarre turn of events as law enforcement attempt to save the hostages, as well the emotional trials and social pressures of immigrant assimilation into the American culture. A peaceful surrender quickly turns this sleepy city into a national tragedy. (www.immigrantscanada.com). As reported in the news.
