Event Description
Mothers of Bedford
Country: USA
Director: Jenifer McShane
Eighty percent of women in US prisons today are mothers of school-age children. This unusually compelling documentary is about an issue rarely reported. We follow five mothers incarcerated at the Bedford Hills Correctional Facility in NY State as they work to “parent” from behind bars. Mothers of Bedford is a deeply moving story about these women, their journey and the staggering power of the mother-child relationship. (2011; 93 min) Jenifer McShane is scheduled to attend the screening. Presented in collaboration with Pennsylvania Women Work.
