Please join Humanity for Prisoners in viewing the documentary that tells the journey of eight Michigan prisoners striving for greatness behind bars. This film is a story of hope and transformation… because each of us is more than the worst thing we’ve ever done.

The 2023 Grand Rapids Film Festival’s Best Documentary, Behind Our Walls, 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!
