Forgiven/Forgotten

Premiered 2013

A stranger in need, a community in turmoil, an offender in their midst.

When a family finds out that an offender will be serving his parole in their community, they are forced to choose between closing their doors or reaching out to those in need.

“Forgiven/Forgotten” is a fast paced, heart-wrenching drama that examines how our culture responds to those affected by crime.

Commissioned by Mennonite Central Committee Ontario Restorative Justice Program.
