This disturbing and controversial experimental film tells the story of 28-year-old Ray Garcia, whose abusive upbringing still affects him deeply.

In the end, he contemplates committing violent crimes himself. A History of Violence questions the power that familial and media violence has on both individuals and our culture at large.
