Divine G (Colman Domingo), imprisoned at Sing Sing for a crime he didn’t commit, finds purpose by acting in a theatre group alongside other incarcerated men, including wary newcomer (Clarence Maclin). Sing Sing is a stirring true story of resilience, humanity, and the transformative power of art, starring an unforgettable ensemble cast of formerly incarcerated actors.
Why We Love It: "Based on a real prison arts programme, and featuring mostly ex-prisoners in the cast, I loved this for its warmth and rawness. Colman Domingo is brilliant in the lead - what an incredible presence he has - and it's great to see more of Paul Raci from Sound of Metal, demonstrating more of the empathy and naturalism that defined his Oscar-nominated performance from that film. Sing Sing is beautifully shot on film and movingly scored by Bryce Dessner of The National - both of which offer a humanising counterpoint to the soul-crushing prison interiors." - Paul Gallagher, Programme Manager
