Robert came home at the end of October, 2020. Facilitators, along with PPTG filmmaker, Peter Carroll--together with Robert’s terrific family and other friends--greeted Robert as he left Auburn Correctional Facility after 30 years of incarceration. A week later, we interviewed Robert about what he was feeling. Here is a four minute trailer of that interview in which Robert reflects on being home, the men he knows who remain inside, and his experiences with The Phoenix Players. Robert is an example of how redemption is possible and how his time with PPTG was instrumental in his transformation. Supported by the group and his fellow members, Robert demonstrates how the stories of those serving long sentences can have a powerful impact on the community beyond the walls. Filming and editing by Peter and posted with Robert’s permission.
Welcome Home, Robert!
