A declaration of love

Curtis was only 22 when he was sentenced to death for a crime he did not commit and has since spent 22 years in prison, 19 of them on death row in an Oklahoma state penitentiary,  waiting to be executed.

A Declaration of Love tries to give a voice to a man who is cruelly persecuted by a perverse judicial system, delving into his deepest and most hidden emotions. The film is a visual journey through Curtis’ gaze and his sense of disorientation towards a world, the external one, to which he no longer belongs.
