DocFest: 26.2 to Life

Join us for post-screening Q&A with director Christine Yoo, followed by an afterparty at 518 Valencia!

Filmed inside California’s oldest state prison, 26.2 to Life explores the transformative power of San Quentin’s 1000 Mile Club, in which incarcerated men train for and run a marathon on the dirt and concrete path circling the prison yard. Through intimate access behind the walls of the infamous correctional facility, the film confronts the meaning of personal transformation within the greater crisis of the American carceral state.

Presented as part of San Francisco Documentary Festival 2023.
