Forgiveness

How can you save a surviving marriage when you can't even save your own soul and self? Bernadine is the warden in charge of death row inmates and has carried out executions faithfully in a high-security prison for many years. The heavy workload made her numb, and her relationship with her husband became increasingly alienated day by day. But when she establishes a relationship with Anthony, a young death row inmate, her inner emotions are awakened again, forcing her to face complex and contradictory moral issues, struggling and reflecting between right and wrong. Is the death penalty ethical? What about the executioner being allowed to kill under the law? Chinoni Chuhu made an atypical prison film that stirred people's hearts and penetrated humanity. With this film, she became the first black female director to win the Sundance Film Festival's highest honor award.
