The First Release
Based on Gene Hathorns life on Death Row in Texas, the first release will put focus on capital punishment. Gene Hathorn has donated his own body to Marco Evaristti, after he get executed. Marco Evaristti will turn his body into fish food, so the audience can ‘feed Gene Hathorns to the fish’, literally.
