Breaking the traditional format of prison films, this documentary shows viable and hopeful alternatives to the current justice system. Granting viewers access to the interior lives of prisoners and survivors of violent crime, “The Prison Within” is a moving and inspiring exploration of the healing and transformation possible when people are accountable, forgiven, and empowered to give to society with dignity and compassion.

Please watch “The Prison Within” in advance of our discussion.  The film is available on Amazon Prime (Currently Amazon is having technical difficulties), YouTube or Vimeo for $5.00. Email us if you need a gift card to watch.

The community discussion will be via Zoom on Wednesday, Feb. 17 at 7PM and will include the following guests: Katherin Hervey (the film’s director), Carmen Pacheco-Jones, Jermaine Williams and Inge Laurent.
