CRIMINAL (2025)


Robe Imbriano's CRIMINAL is a one of a kind animated documentary short musical about cash bail.

I see your eyes glazing over, but that would be wrong. After all the New Yorker put the film on their website (go here).

The truth is that CRIMINAL is a magnificent film that beautifully explore the issues with bail  and the problems with it.  It's a film that even had me, someone who has a day job in the criminal justice system, pondering the way bail is used.

CRIMINAL is a one of a kind film that forcefully shows that there is no wrong way to tell a story if it works. Some times you have to mash things to get the result you want.

One the great surprises of the year and a must see.
