Dr. Gilda Sheppard (Since I Been Down)

MovieMaker - A podcast by MovieMaker Magazine

Categories:

Since I Been Down tells the story of Kimonti Carter, who was sent to prison for a drive-by shooting in 1997, when he was barely 18, for the killing of a college student named Corey Pittman.The film's director, Dr. Gilda Sheppard, also tells the story of Kimonti's decades-long search for redemption, and of a prison education program he founded in hopes of giving fellow inmates hope behind bars.Perhaps most powerfully, the film indicts the factors far outside of his control that made his neighborhood a haven for gangs, and put countless men behind bars when they were barely out of childhood.
