The Bioneers Moving Image Festival presents a screening of ‘The House I Live In‘. Also presented by Grist.
In the past 40 years, the War on Drugs has accounted for 45 million arrests, made America the world’s largest jailer, and destroyed impoverished communities at home and abroad. Filmed in more than twenty states, The House I Live In tells the stories of individuals at all levels of America’s War on Drugs. From the dealer to the narcotics officer, the inmate to the federal judge, the film offers a penetrating look inside America’s criminal justice system, revealing the profound human rights implications of U.S. drug policy. Winner: Best Documentary at the 2012 Sundance Film Festival. (106 minutes)
Panelists: Dr. Gabor Mate (The Realm of Hungry Ghosts), Ethan Nadelmann (Drug Policy Alliance), and Sarah Skenazy (Bioneers)
