The video is less than 30 minutes long. It starts with an interview of Jake Adelstein in Japan who speaks about the strict gun legislation put in place after WWII and the results. Each police department in japan has a unit solely dedicated to enforcement of gun laws. The second part is an interview with gun lobbyist Richard Feldman who basically reads off a list of NRA talking points. The video finishes with Antony Altbeker who speaks on the efforts to reduce gun violence in South Africa and the Pistorius case.
