"Den wahren Ereignissen frei nachgestaltete Geschichte einer katholischen Ordensschwester, die einem zum Tode Verurteilten als religiöser Beistand dient. Keine Polemik für oder gegen die Todesstrafe, sondern eine mit äußerster künstlerischer Konzentration und sparsamen filmischen Mitteln erzielte Bewußtmachung der geistigen und geistlichen Hilfsbedürftigkeit auf beiden Seiten, der des Täters und der seiner Opfer. Der Versuch, der "Komplexität der Dinge" näherzukommen, führt unmerklich in eine spirituelle Dimension, die den Film von dem meisten unterscheidet, was heute aus Hollywood in unsere Kinos kommt.

"Inspired by the true story of a nun's relationship with a condemned man, this provocative examination of crime, punishment and redemption earned Susan Sarandon the 1995 Oscar for Best Actress and Sean Penn an Oscar nomination for Best Actor. Dead Man Walking is a fast-moving and absorbing film filled with genuine suspense that will leave you awe-struck from beginning to end. Sister Helen Prejean (Sarandon), a compassionate New Orleans nun, is the spiritual advisor to Matthew Poncelet (Penn), a vicious, angry and complex murderer awaiting execution. Her dedication is to help others, like Matthew, find salvation. But as she attempts to navigate Matthew's dark soul, she encounters a depth of evil that makes her question how far redemption can really go. Can she stave off the fateful day of execution long enough to save Matthew, or will she discover a truth that will rock the very fondation by wich she lives her life? (Quelle: Umschlag)."
