I highly, highly recommend "The Prison Within". It gives viewers a true picture of the intelligence and humanity of the people in the film, who represent others who are incarcerated and volunteers. Having been a volunteer in numerous programs at San Quentin for ten years, I can attest to the truth of this documentary, how motivated the men in the film are, and how much courage, persistence, and strength it takes to keep working on themselves. The ones who have been released since the film was made are doing much for their communities, continuing their determination to make amends through service. I urge you to watch this film so you will gain an understanding of what goes on inside the walls and the beauty of so many incarcerated people.
