The Preview:

PREMIERE: Monday, Feb. 27, 2012 • 6:30 pm

JBFC Theater. 364 Manville Road, Pleasantville

Free and open to the public

IN WAITING was created by students in the BOCES Incarcerated Youth Program (IYP) at the Westchester County Jail. The JBFC spent six months teaching six inmates how to film and edit digital video and helped them produce a narrative film, an adaptation of Israel Horovitz's seminal play, THE INDIAN WANTS THE BRONX. The result is a compelling narrative short investigating issues of masculinity in prison today. The project was made possible with support from Westchester County Department of Corrections.

A screening of the short film will be followed by a panel discussion with the students filmmakers, and JBFC and IYP staff.

Please RSVP by Friday, February 24 to education@burnsfilmcenter.org

I usually agree with you..but not on this one. I'd rather see this and this was done by a program already established..then them sitting doing nothing but becoming even better criminals. If one gets it...then its worth it. Cost a lot more to house them then what BOCES already has set up.
