The name Kitty Genovese became synonymous with bystander apathy after The New York Times reported that 38 witnesses watched her being murdered - and did nothing to help. The Witness, which premiered to critical-acclaim at the 2015 New York Film Festival, follows her brother Bill's search for the truth. In the process, he unravels a myth that transformed his life, condemned a city, and defined an era. THE WITNESS debunks one of America's most chilling crime stories as a brother reclaims his sister's forgotten life from her infamous death.
