Watch the Trailer: "Paint Me A Road Out of Here"
In "Paint Me A Road Out of Here", filmmaker Catherine Gund traces the powerful, decades-long journey of Faith Ringgold’s monumental painting For the Women’s House—a vibrant mural created for the women of Rikers Island in 1971. The documentary follows Ringgold and fellow artist Mary Enoch Elizabeth Baxter as they fight to reclaim the artwork’s legacy and spotlight the voices of incarcerated women. Heartbreaking, humorous, and deeply human, this film is both a tribute to artistic resilience and a call to imagine a world beyond mass incarceration.
