Synopsis
Thirteen people have tried to kill the President of the United States. Four have succeeded. These murders and would-be murderers are generally dismissed as maniacs and misfits who have little in common with each other, and nothing in common with the rest of us. ASSASSINS suggests otherwise. Assassins suggests that in a land that promises dreams can come true, that everybody's got the right to dream. But what do they do when they are left forgotten and their dreams shattered. Who do they blame?
