OCTOBER 29, 2019 | 7PM | 107 MIN

71 years in the making, INMATE #1: THE RISE OF DANNY TREJO is the feature documentary experience revealing the extraordinary life journey of Hollywood’s most unlikely hero, Danny Trejo. From an early life of drugs, armed robbery and hard prison time, to the red carpets of Hollywood blockbusters and helping troubled addicts, Danny gives a first-hand account of one of the greatest transformations of human character ever put to film.

Much more than a celebrity profile, this biography gets to the heart of a wise storyteller who knows what it is like to be beaten and stand up again. Despite his star status, he continues to visit inmates and share his story, one that deeply resonates with people from all walks of life.

Inmate#1 is produced by the international award-winning documentary team, that brought you Ice Guardians, The Culture High, and The Union: The Business Behind Getting High: producers Adam Scorgie, Iliana Nikolic and Rocky Mudaliar, and award-winning director Brett Harvey.

PRODUCER ADAM SCORGIE WILL BE IN ATTENDANCE FOR A POST-SCREENING Q&A
