Audience Member I watched this awhile back on TVO, some compelling and very interesting moments. I would like to see it again. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 01/14/23 Full Review Audience Member A retrospective doc at this years Hot Docs 2011 fest, focuses on a group of former convicts and their experience in penitenteary and their various attempts to keep clean and on the straight and narrow, and how their lives have been affected or their situations have been worsened by their times in this lifestyle. Intriguing, specially the case of the cancer survivor now living in Peterborough and how he uses music as one of his interests to keep hope up. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Read all reviews
