Featuring the music and lyrics of Tony Award winners Stew Stewart and Heidi Rodewald (“Passing Strange”) the animation of Cinema Eye winner Thomas Curtis (“Going to Mars: The Nikki Giovanni Project”) and the direction of Emmy winner Robe Imbriano (“Soul of a Nation”), Criminal is an animated musical documentary short film that confronts the injustice of people held at the Harris County Jail in Houston, Texas. The vast majority are there because they don’t have enough cash to pay their way out before trial. Because they are poor, thousands are held for months or even shipped to jails out of state when they are supposed to be presumed innocent.
