Program Description

Event Details

This Emmy-nominated documentary explores issues of justice, rehabilitation and safety while following prisoner rights advocate Bill Ryan as he promotes re-instituting parole for Illinois state inmates ages 50 and up. The hour-long film illustrates the forces that created our system, and surveys the competing arguments and data points at play to equip viewers to decide for themselves what should be done about criminal justice in Illinois. A panel discussion with members of the Illinois Prison Project will follow the screening.
