16 BARS is a documentary that explores a unique rehabilitation effort in a Virginia jail that encourages inmates to write and record original music. In a makeshift recording studio located in the Richmond City Jail, four men collaborate with Grammy-winning recording artist Speech (Arrested Development) on an album behind bars. As the creative process forces each of these men to confront their painful pasts, it also opens new doors to their futures. 16 BARS is a look behind the U.S. criminal justice system's revolving door, and at the issues of incarceration, rehabilitation, recidivism, and the cycle's inevitable connection to homelessness.EXTRAS-4 individual music videos for songs created inside the prison recording studio-Full Q&A after the World Premiere screening at DocLands Film Festival-Theatrical Trailer
