SCREENING FOLLOWED BY A CONVERSATION WITH DIRECTORS ANDREW JARECKI AND CHARLOTTE KAUFMAN | MODERATED BY DAN GELLER
In 2019, filmmakers visit an Alabama prison to film a revival meeting. Off camera, incarcerated men whisper a message: terrible things are going on here and being kept secret. This sparks an immersive six-year investigation to discover the reality behind the walls of one of the nation’s deadliest prison systems.
Through unprecedented direct access and video shot on contraband cell phones, the filmmakers learn from the men inside about a suspicious and violent death. The story unfolds in real time, revealing it isn’t an isolated incident and that the official version appears far from the truth. What follows is a shocking story of brutality, corruption, and a system in collapse. As the men fight for their own survival, they embark on a campaign of resistance, against all odds.
Directors: Andrew Jarecki, Charlotte Kaufman (US 2025) 117 min.
