Film Screening: Concrete, Steel, and Paint

When men in a Philadelphia regional prison’s art class agreed to collaborate with crime victims to design a mural about healing, their views on punishment, remorse, and forgiveness collided.  At times the divide seemed too wide to bridge. But as participants began to work together, mistrust gave way to genuine moments of human contact and common purpose.  Their struggle and the insights gained are reflected in the art they created. Producers Cindy Burstein and Tony Heriza will attend the film screening to introduce it and answer questions.
