SUMMARY:Conviction
DESCRIPTION:Saturday\, November 16 | 2:30 PM | River Park Church Auditorium

 , Ariella Pahlke\, Teresa MacInnes \n2019 | 78 min \n\nBianca\, Treena\
 , Laura\, and Caitlin are a stark reflection of the troubling worldwide te
 ndency to criminalize and imprison the most vulnerable in society—those 
 most affected by poverty\, addiction\, childhood trauma\, and mental illne
 ss.\n\nTogether with long-time prisoners’ rights advocate Kim Pate and o
 thers\, these women collaborate with the filmmakers to answer a deceptivel
 y simple question: What would you have needed to avoid incarceration? Thro
 ugh art\, photography\, filmmaking and poetry\, the women inside envision 
 a more ideal world on the outside.\n\nTheir creative agency emerges as a f
 orce that empowers them to chart the course of their own lives\, and they 
 become increasingly engaged in making Conviction—not another 'broken pri
 son' film\, but rather a 'broken society' film.\n\nConviction takes us on 
 a raw and cinematic journey\, while making the impassioned argument that w
 e would do better to create communities that heal and support our most vul
 nerable\, rather than punish them further.\n
