We have screened this film various times in different cities since I first became appalled by its subject. Bringing attention to this issue of children being charged as adults in many cases that I thought was ridiculous was a top priority, which led me to become an advocate. I pushed hard, then heard that reform was happening and I thought things would improve significantly. However, a recent discussion taught me that much more work remains. This is one of the main reasons for revisiting this film to bring people together around the issue in Charlottesville.
