Impact Producer
Philly D.A.
Philly D.A. is a radically transparent look at the role of the prosecutor in the justice system. Philly D.A. is not a love letter to Larry Krasner, or a piece of advocacy, but an examination and an inquiry into the human impact of mass incarceration, told through the story of one city.
