    • Broken Systems (2023) – runtime 18:00 – The Impact of Incarceration on a person is profound, often leaving traumatic, mental and emotional scars long after stepping out of prison. Restrictive & sometimes arbitrary parole terms can extend incarceration and make it easier to recidivate. Parole should be a tool to help people successfully reintegrate into their communities, not another form of punishment.
