Join Critical Resistance in the Bay Area at the New Parkway Theater on Sunday, October 13 for a *free* abolitionist film night and a special pre-election viewing of the new in-progress film, And Water Brings Tomorrow, directed by Ashley Hunt!

The film (current run time  1 hour and 47 minutes) features an insightful look into the transformation of closed prisons across the US, the community-driven efforts leading to their closure, and the complex narratives of loss and reconciliation that emerge from these changes. And Water Brings Tomorrow is the final installment in Ashley Hunt’s trilogy that includes “Ashes Ashes” (2020) and “Double Time” (2021), focusing on the themes of prison closure and the ongoing movement for abolition and includes footage and interviews from Californians United for a Responsible Budget (CURB)’s statewide fight to close 10 prisons in California the end of 2025. (Watch the trailer below!)
