The Justice on Trial Film Festival speaks to the challenges of people caught up in the judicial system.

Loyola Marymount University

The Justice on Trial Film Festival speaks to the challenges of people caught up in the judicial system. They know only too well the pain and injustice—the solitary confinement, the stop-and-frisk humiliations, the selective prosecutions with bad plea bargains, and the unreasonably long sentences that they suffer. They are painfully familiar with the school-to-prison pipeline that puts so many young people, particularly those of color, at risk. But their voices are often unheard beyond their own communities. The film festival creates an opportunity to project their voices to a world deafened by the negative images and stereotypes presented by the media.***The Film Festival is free and open to the public. Register by October 21st to reserve your lunch.***

Film Festival Schedule:The Justice on Trial Film Festival will be held in person at Loyola Marymount University from 11:00—4:30PM on Saturday, October 29th and Sunday, October 30th.

Searching for Justice (Prod: Mike Fritz &amp; Frank Carlson [PBS])Focuses on the challenges individuals face after incarceration — challenges made more difficult by the Covid-19 pandemic — from reconnecting with family, to finding work and housing, to staying out of prison or jail.
