Welcome to Inthrive Film Festival: FXBG

Join us on November 1 as we showcase the voices and talents of incarceration survivors. In partnership with People, Inc, Fail Safe ERA, IAHR, Konnect Recovery & The Humanization Project, we will be hosting a full Saturday of film and conversation centered on the  authentic experiences of people impacted by incarceration! 


Come and be challenged, inspired, and motivated to take action!

Join us at Germanna Community College

Why attend?

Come be a part of the community of incarceration survivors, advocates, allies, and friends that are working to remove barriers to successful reentry!

Experience powerful films, meet fascinating people, and get connected with organizations working in the Fredericksburg area.

What to expect

 Be moved by films from incarceration survivors. Be inspired by spoken word performed by people still behind bars. Hear filmmakers share how they went from behind bars to behind the camera. Meet entrepreneurs who have changed their lives and are now pillars of their community. Meet incarceration survivors who are now changing policy at the local and national level by sharing their stories and using their talents.
