FILMS
Why attend?
3 nights at 3 venues, we're bringing the voices and talents of incarceration survivors to communities across Northern Virginia!
Join us to be moved by films that challenge your view on people impacted by incarceration, inspired by incarceration survivors sharing their stories, and get connected with organizations and individuals working to remove barriers to successful reentry.
What to expect
Each evening starts with time to meet community partners that are doing incredible work in Northern Virginia and beyond. Then we'll watch several films that elevate the voices and talents of incarceration survivors. We'll wrap the evening with a discussion about the films or highlighting local folks impacted by the justice system.
