Kervens ‘Tito’ Jimenez was imprisoned in his native Haiti at the age of 17 for a crime he did not commit and was never tried for. These images were captured by him via a camera he smuggled into the prison. The final edit of this film is in honour of the late Tito, who was murdered at the age of 25.
