Incarcerated men defy the odds to expose a cover-up in one of America's deadliest prison systems.

鈥淭he Alabama Solution鈥� will likely play to people who already know about the corruption, brutality, and slave labor that feed our prison system, but it鈥檚 still important to see the horrors that unfold in this country that so many consider free.

Variety

One of the most powerful expos茅s of the inhumanity of the American prison system I鈥檝e ever seen. Directed by Andrew Jarecki and Charlotte Kaufman, the movie is a scalding portrait of life on the inside that exerts a grip worthy of a thriller.

The Hollywood Reporter

The Alabama Solution is difficult to watch, and impossible to watch without escalating anger. There isn鈥檛 easy catharsis or an easy non-Alabama solution, but it鈥檚 impossible to deny that something better must be done.

United Press International

If incarcerated inmates can make progress in activism from inside prison walls, it suggests even greater things are possible when people with more resources join forces. The documentary illuminating the issue is a major step.
