Ronald Ryan walked from his condemned cell on the morning of February 3, 1967, was read his last rites, and prepared for death. Standing face-to-face with his executioner, Ryan said "God bless you, and please make it quick." The hangman then leapt for the strapdoor lever. Ryan was the last man hanged in Australia. His execution sparked massive public outrage and the subsequent abolition of the death penalty across the country. This startling documentary tells why. Starring Colin Friels as Ronald Ryan, and featuring candid interviews with the people who knew Ryan well - his wife, lawyer, fellow ascapee, trial judge, the journalist who witnessed his execution. It is also the story of a brutal, cold-blooded murder by the state.
