Filming Jews In Prison

by Rhonda Moskowitz / April 16, 2012

My name is Rhonda Moskowitz and I'm a documentary filmmaker who has been filming American Jews in prison on and off for the last ten years.

If you're interested in the subject matter, you can listen to an interview I did for a Montreal Jewish radio show called Shtetl On The Shortwave. Former Jewish prisoners living in a Jewish halfway house, as well as the rabbi who runs this re-entry program, were also interviewed.

Subject matter has been a real eye-opener. It's been quite a journey.

I'm currently in post production on two documentaries about Jewish prisoners and their families.

You can listen to the show, which is on the Passover themes of freedom and bondage, here:
