The 'justice system' and incarceration creates a hopeless cycle which traps individuals, their families and whole communities. Essentially, it takes away a person's ability to control their own life and leaves them in a hostile, pressure-cooker environment. This film demonstrates the restorative services provided by a network of organisations working at a grassroots level with people reentering society. The holistic principles of permaculture are fundamental in reconnecting people with the land and their innate ability to sustain life and provide for their communities.
