The Dhamma Brothers

The Dhamma Brothers is a story of human potential and transformation as it closely follows and documents prison inmates at Donaldson Correctional Facility in Alabama as they enter into an arduous and intensive 10 day program of Vipassana meditation. This film has the power to dismantle stereotypes about men behind prison bars.
“The documentary does a great deal to un-do the demonization of men in prison that runs so deeply in popular culture. It reintroduces the notion of rehabilitation in an era of retribution and retaliation.”
– Howard Zehr, Professor, Sociology and Restorative Justice
