Shot entirely on location in California maximum-security prisons, “Step to the Line” provides a new perspective on prisoners, the correctional system, and even yourself. In this project, we see how release from incarceration can be just as jarring as intake, and how parallel lives diverge when someone serves time.

Directed by Ricardo Laganaro, and produced by Oculus in association with Defy Ventures, “Step to The Line,” premiered at the 2017 Tribeca Film Festival.
