[edit] Information

"An essential documentary, Brett Story's incisive, investigative and wide-ranging 'The Prison in Twelve Landscapes' is an examination of the prison and its place - social, economic and psychological - in American society. Filmmaker Brett Story excavates the often-unseen links and connections that prisons - and our system of mass incarceration - have on communities and industries all around us; from a blazing California mountainside where female prisoners fight raging wildfires to a Bronx warehouse that specializes in prison-approved care packages to an Appalachian coal town betting its future on the promise of new prison jobs to the street where Michael Brown was shot in Ferguson (and to the nearby St. Louis County, where African-Americans are still fending off police harassment, but of a different form). Winner of Honorable Mention for Best Canadian Documentary at the Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival."
