Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
This documentary explores the conditions endured by male inmates in 1975 at the Metropolitan State Hospital in Norwalk, California. Of particular concern to the filmmakers was the liberal use of sedatives simply for the greater convenience of the staff, who appear to have little interest in their patients. One highlight of the film is the title song, "Hurry Tomorrow," composed and sung by one of the patients.
