Documentary by Barbara Wiener: Art from the Inside

Art from the Inside profiles Antonio Espinosa, a guard with Stillwater State Prison for 18 years, as he creates a project to work with inmates and bring the art they create while living in prison into the wider world. Interviews with inmate artists, the prison psychologist and art teacher as well as comments from the Commissioner of corrections, Paul Schnell create a portrait of incarcerated men working towards reformation and redemption in a corrections system that needs reform itself.
