About me:
74 min, USA 2007************************************************************************************************************************************************** Odds are that if you go to prison and are lucky enough to get out, you’ll be going back some time soon. Julio Medina, however, beat the odds. A drug-dealing gang leader when he entered prison, Julio left 12 years later a changed man. He created Exodus Transitional Community, a program in Harlem dedicated to breaking the cycle of incarceration that ensnares so many. The trick to Exodus is that its staff knows firsthand what it’s like to go to jail. They’re ex-cons – a badass group of do-gooders who are reaching their clients like nobody else can. HARD ROAD HOME tells the story of this high–risk, high-drama world and the extraordinary task of turning around the fate of one person born into it.
Who I'd like to meet:
THE DIRECTOR Macky Alston’s award-winning documentary films include The Killer Within (premiered Toronto International Film Festival 2006, to air on the Discovery Channel 2007), Questioning Faith (premiered Full Frame Film Festival and the Hot Docs International Film Festival and aired on HBO/Cinemax 2002), and Family Name (premiered Sundance Film Festival 1997 and aired on PBS’ POV 1998). His awards include the Sundance Film Festival Freedom of Expression Award and the Gotham Open Palm Award.
