The Portland premiere of this remarkable doc follows Philly-based artist and past Art For Justice Fund fellow Jesse Krimes, who created a monumental body of artwork while incarcerated for six years in federal prison. (One piece is a multi-panel, 40-foot mural made entirely with bed sheets, hair gel, and newspaper, which Krimes couldn't view in its entirety until he returned home.) As part of the Portland Book Festival’s Cover to Cover series, this event will include a post-screening discussion with Portland-born Pulitzer Prize winner Mitchell S. Jackson.
