The Quilters is a 32-minute documentary, that follows the daily lives of several men inside the sewing room in a Level 5 maximum security prison in a small Missouri town. Audiences will come to know these men, witnessing their struggles, triumphs, and sense of pride as they create something beautiful in this windowless, sacred space, deep within the prison walls. Through this process and the relationships forged audiences will witness the power of art to restore an individual’s view of themselves and others.
