America Reframed
In An Ideal World | Trailer
Over seven years, IN AN IDEAL WORLD follows three men in CA’s Soledad prison — John, a white separatist murderer, Sam, a black ex-gang member and Ben, a warden. Challenged for the first time by a mixed-race program, and with pressure from the courts to integrate, the men struggle to move beyond the stark realities of America’s prison system.
