In Prison My Whole Life (15) Introduced by William Francome and |
|
| In Prison My Whole Life explores the story of Mumia Abu Jamal, a prisoner who has been on death row for over 25 years. Mumia has, through his journalism and radio broadcasts, taken his case far beyond prison walls, attracting massive support from Amnesty International, and world leaders including Nelson Mandela. The film explores the circumstances surrounding Mumia’s arrest, and uncovers a man who is equally an inspiration to some and a pariah to others. Mumia’s case is a lightning rod for many issues that characterise the key differences between the American justice system and that of the rest of the ‘civilized’ world. Dir. Marc Evans, UK/USA, 1hr34. BBFC Advice: Contains strong language, violence and real images of dead bodies This special screening will be introduced by William Francome, who is behind the idea for the film, and followed by a Q & A session. Tickets cost: £5 full price / £3.80 conc. For more info visit www.inprisonmywholelife.com |
