Night in West Texas | Official Trailer

Season 11 Episode 1101 | 30s

After a gay Apache man is convicted of murdering a closeted priest in 1981 West Texas, new leadership in Odessa reopens the case four decades later. Unprocessed fingerprints and emerging suspects expose corruption, homophobia, and racism. Embedding with the Innocence Project, the film follows a rare alliance seeking justice in a state where exoneration is painfully rare.

Support for Reel South is made possible by the ETV Endowment of South Carolina, National Endowment for the Arts, and Wyncote Foundation.
