Heartwarming and Sincere

'You've got to forgive yourself before you forgive others'.You might think this is a piece of sentimental fluff, but when it's spoken by a man who's spent 40 years in prison, it carries weight and meaning.Some prisoners coming together for a project is a familiar theme, but in this doc, you can feel how they express their soul through their creative vision. Like 'Chill' who has to act tough outside but makes beautiful butterfly quilts for little girls. He expresses the feminine part of his personality, acquired from his mom, through these quilts. I felt terrible for the man who took back a razor and fabric he was working on back to the cell. He could never see the full fruits of his vision.Loved the documentary and the inmates. It gives hope for humanity.

Why isn't this a series?!

I absolutely loved this short film. And I was so disappointed when it ended.This film follows a program in a prison where prisoners with good behaviour join a quilting class.What is so lovely about this film is that you see the prisoners express themselves creatively through quilting for foster children. Something you probably wouldn't expect from hardened criminals. I wish this was a series. I wish we could learn more about them and their crimes and their outreach programs. I feels like there was something of value to learn here. They take real pride in what they're doing.It's definitely worth watching, I do recommend.
