Humanity for Prisoners will continue to show the 2023 Grand Rapids Film Festival's Best Documentary, Behind Our Walls. The documentary, produced by Nate Roels, tells the story of eight Michigan prisoners in Handlon Correctional Facility and the educational program that brought them together, Calvin Prison Initiative, established by Calvin University and Calvin Theological Seminary. Prior to the feature film showing, a brief but inspiring film depicting the work and mission of Humanity for Prisoners will be shown.

"It's not my story, it's the story of these men, telling the story of transformation, working across difference, overcoming adversity...it's stories of what they've gone through and the resilience they've shown," said Roels.

 

This is a film you won't want to miss!
