the project

Think Outside the Cell is a non-profit organization founded in 2010 that works with the incarcerated, formerly incarcerated, and their families to help end the stigma of incarceration. 

The VII Foundation produced documentary film and photography features to help raise awareness about the experience of formerly incarcerated persons. The project shadows individuals day-to-day as they deal with the challenges of reintegrating into society.
