In April 2009 three young men were killed in a remote part of Yellowstone National Park. The only thing more shocking than the crime itself are the bizarre events that followed.
Julian Pinder and Adam Levins’ Population Zero focuses on the crazy true fact that there exists a place in America where there are no laws and you can really get away with murder. FrightFest will present the film in the UK on April 10, 2017.
The indie production has its world premiere at the Newport Beach Film Festival.
“In 2009 three young men were killed in a remote area of Yellowstone National Park. Only hours later, Dwayne Nelson walks into a ranger station miles away and confessed to the crime. Despite his detailed confession, Nelson goes free because of a loophole in the American Constitution. Documentarian Julian T. Pinder travels to Yellowstone in a chase for truth behind a crime that should have rocked the nation. How did the United States Constitution let a guilty man go free? In ‘Population Zero’ we find the only thing more shocking thank this senseless act of violence may be the bizarre events that followed.“
