This 18 minute video,originally designed for younger children, tracks a day
in the life of a prisoner in San Quentin State Prison in order to answer the
typical questions posed by visiting children. The viewer takes a "virtual"
tour of the prison, and visits various sites with inmate comments along the
way. Since the release of the video, significant interest has been generated
in the "adult" community. The video is now widely used by probation
officers, teachers, and with adult audiences in general discussions of
prisons and prison life. It remains a useful tool for all visiting
programs.
