Art for Justice Film Series: Free Screening of "Mothers of Bedford"

Wednesday, July 25, 2018 - 5:30pm

Join us for this free event at The Loft Cinema, located at 3233 E Speedway Blvd.

Eighty percent of women in US prisons today are mothers of school-age children.  Mothers of Bedford tells the story of five women, mapping the experience of motherhood through the lens of mass incarceration.  Filmed over four years, the film chronicles Sister Elaine Roulet’s work in the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility, where Roulet works to allow greater access between incarcerated mothers and their children.
