Former hate group members help others attempting to leave behind radicalism.
The film screened as part of DOC NYC, for which our program notes read:
This timely film profiles Life After Hate, an organization founded by former skinheads and neo-Nazis that supports white nationalists seeking to break away from these radical movements. Given exclusive access, director Peter Hutchison follows group counselors as they attempt both to reform individuals and offer support to communities impacted by the recent rise of hate activity, exploring the root causes of radicalization, and what it will take to return us to a more tolerant world.
