Directors/Producers: David Munro and V. Scott Balcerek
Description:
Billy Ray Worth and Clay Turner, two incarcerated men serving life sentences, forge an extraordinary friendship through an unexpected act of compassion: starting a crochet group to make warm items for fellow inmates in hospice care. Together, they lead a community of men who defy stereotypes about life behind bars, finding purpose and connection through caregiving and creativity. As the group collaborates on a special project—a crochet wall hanging for the hospice unit—their story becomes one of redemption, transformation, and the enduring power of human connection.
