Carolyn Talks...With Directors Nance Ackerman & Ariella Pahlke About Conviction

Nance Ackerman and Ariella Pahlke and Face2Face host David Peck talk about their new film Conviction, PTSD and trauma, responsibility, the vulnerable and marginalized and why prisons are not healing environments.Trailer Synopsis: Alarmed by the rising numbers of women in prison and inspired by the conviction of Senator Kim Pate, Conviction flips the narrative away from pop culture's voyeuristic lens and hands it to the women who are being victimized, marginalized and criminalized in our society. Not another ‘broken prison’ film, Conviction is a ‘broken society’ film – an ambitious and inspired re-build of our community, from the inside out.With more women in prisons than ever before, the film implicates viewers to question the status quo, and to consider a different kind of society that better supports the most vulnerable among us.For more info about the film head here.
