A new documentary which takes a critical look at the assassination of John Lennon on December 8th, 1980 in New York City. Using mostly contemporaneous sources, 'John Lennon: a conspiracy of silence', arrives at a conclusion which differs from the 'official' story: that the number of bullet holes at the scene and in John Lennon are more than possible with the assassin's 5 shot revolver. Original footage shooting in New York and Vancouver, Washington. Narrated by Eric Sloane.
