Two men in 1930s Mississippi become friends after being sentenced to life in prison together for a crime they did not commit.

A quest for redemption is unfolding in Washington, D.C. Thanks to forward-looking “Second Chance” legislation, three men who were sentenced in their youth to life in prison have the chance to plead for release.

SERVING LIFE documents an extraordinary hospice program where hardened criminals care for dying fellow inmates. Narrated and executive produced by Academy Award®-winner Forest Whitaker, the film takes viewers inside Louisiana's maximum security prison at Angola, where the average sentence is more than 90 years.
