APT Broadcast May 2004 A
year ago, when Hudson River Film & Video learned of a violence
prevention project in the San Francisco County Jail where the
re-arrest rate for violent crimes dropped by 80% after only four
months of intense immersion in the program, we decided to investigate
this remarkable claim. Twelve hours a day, six days a week,
men convicted of violent offenses are involved in what is said
to be the first restorative justice project of its kind -- RSVP:
Resolve to Stop the Violence Project. The documentary
focuses on nine men of diverse ethnicities as they engage one
another in deeply emotional encounter groups, including one following
a Victim Impact session, then follows the men when they return
to their communities. |
