AFTER INNOCENCE, the first feature film about the exonerated, reflects the public's heightened interest in, and fascination with the astonishing stories of the innocent and wrongfully convicted. The film focuses on the gripping story of seven men and their emotional journey back into society and efforts to rebuild their lives. Included are a police officer, an army sergeant and a young father sent to prison and even death row for decades for crimes they did not commit. The film shows that the human toll of wrongful imprisonment can last far longer than the sentences served. "An evenhanded but nonetheless startling depiction of a system that isn't merely blind -- it's deaf, dumb and stupid, as well." - Al Krulick, ORLANDO WEEKLY 2005. USA. English. Not Rated. 95 minutes.
April 18-20: 7:00 PM and 9:00 PM (+3:00 matinee Wednesday)
