It Only Takes Five Minutes To Show How Thorny America's Gun Control Is

Watch the new documentary short "Who Will Survive America."
AMC Networks

Gun control rages on as one of America's fiercest political debates, but a new documentary tackles the thorny topic in just five minutes. The short film is part of "Take 5: Justice in America," the first original series from AMC Networks' on-demand service, SundanceNow Doc Club.

The Huffington Post is premiering the documentary, titled "Who Will Survive America." Director Sheldon Candis (2012's "LUV") took it upon himself to discover how hard it is to purchase a handgun. Surprise, surprise: It isn't very hard at all.

The "Take 5" series features four other documentaries, all centered on topics that are relevant to the current presidential election: the working poor, the criminal justice system, voting rights and gentrification. Watch "Who Will Survive America" below. The other four films will premiere on the "Take 5" site on May 17.
