It is, however, a film about the actual men who are tasked by society with carrying out the death penalty. This is a first-hand look at executioners, the pressures they're put under, and the unbearable toll the act of taking another's life has on their own.

Opening the Door was produced by two former OSF programs, the Center on Crime, Communities & Culture and the Prioject on Death in America.
