“If they’re not doing time for this, then surely for something else.”
The new film from US director Sheila Sofian, follows inmates on life sentences in the US prison system. Sofian “conjures up an inferno of expressive animations painted on glass, abstract re-enactments, and surrealist details, which condenses into a passionate appeal to politicians to abolish prejudgements and racial discrimination.”
The films world premier will be at Dok Leipzig this November and has been nominated for the Animadoc Award.
We have featured Sheila’s work on the blog before, most notably her writing on animated documentary.
We wish Sheila the best of luck with her new film and also her nomination for the Animadoc award!
