Screening DISTRICT OF SECOND CHANCES
Friday, July 19, 2024, 7pm

Produced by FAMM Foundation
Director/Producer: Wynette Yao
Run Time: 77 mins

The film captures their journeys as they unfold: Anthony “Pete” Petty, who has just won his freedom and must rebuild his life after three decades in prison; Gene Downing, who awaits his second chance hearing after two decades behind bars and hopes to reunite with a daughter born after his incarceration; and Colie Levar Long, who is mentoring youth incarcerated with him at D.C. Jail.

He longs to finish college as a free man after a 26-year interruption. D.C. is leading the way with second chance reform, a transformational criminal justice movement spreading across the country. But, as the film shows, a second chance is never guaranteed.
