This documentary highlights a remarkable college class which connects university students with incarcerated students at a maximum security juvenile facility as they discuss classic works of Russian Literature. University of Virginia Lecturer Andrew Kaufman created this course and has been teaching it since 2010. The literature provides a point of reference whereby the students can discuss their lives openly and honestly and learn from each other. Both sets of students come away transformed by this singular educational experience, empowered to pursue lives of greater purpose, and inspired by the discovery of their shared humanity.
