Sleepers, directed by Barry Levinson, is a gripping legal crime drama that tells the story of four childhood friends from Hell's Kitchen, New York. After a youthful prank goes horribly wrong, they are sentenced to a juvenile detention center where they endure horrific abuse at the hands of sadistic guards. More than a decade later, two of the friends, now grown-up hitmen, stumble upon one of their former guards and take their revenge, leading to a high-stakes murder trial where the friends must confront their past and orchestrate a complex plan for justice.

The film features an ensemble cast of prominent actors, including Kevin Bacon, Robert De Niro, Dustin Hoffman, Jason Patric, and Brad Pitt. It is based on a 1995 book of the same name by Lorenzo Carcaterra, who claimed the story was autobiographical. However, the authenticity of this claim has been heavily debated and never officially verified, with the New York City legal system finding no records of such a case. The film's powerful and controversial subject matter sparked considerable discussion upon its release. The score was composed by the legendary John Williams, earning him an Academy Award nomination.
