Documentary Film
Starting the Conversation
We
offer all our films in different lengths to fit your event. For a party
at your house, a statewide campaign, or an outreach tool for a national
effort, Thousand Kites films can have a powerful impact on your
community's dialogue about criminal justice and human rights.
Thousand Kites is pleased to launch our project with the awarding winning documentary Up the Ridge.
