Summary:

With six-thousand ex-offenders returning to Washington DC each year, these 'Returning Citizens' make up ten percent of the population. Due to the recent bi-partisan push for prison reform, the number of newly released men and women is rapidly rising, as are the rates of crime and violence. Follow a passionate, close-knit community of individuals who are looking for a second chance, or perhaps a chance they never had to begin with.
