Comments | It's 2022 in America and society has come up with a novel concept of getting rid of crime and evil doers in society. One a year every citizen has the right to purge whoever they deem worthy of being purged, that is till you get a family like the Sandins who realise that everything is not as black and white as it appears to be. |
