[Forty Minutes] ... of documentary. A season of films portraying issues, stories and characters.

On the coach to Maine that turned out of New York's Central Bus Terminal on Independence Day 1977 was a disturbed and resentful man. In his pocket was a revolver. Within ten hours two other passengers were murdered in cold blood, 21 others were hostages in fear of their lives, and one of the world's busiest international airports was at a standstill.

This story of the Kennedy Hijack is told by: Frank Bolz and Julio Vasquez, New York policemen who negotiated with the murderer by radio telephone; Bruce de Boer, who answered the police looking down the barrel of the murderer's revolver; and from his prison cell, Louis Robinson, the murderer himself.

Their statements and the original police tape recordings build up a unique picture of the disintegrating mind of a cornered and desperate man.
