The Quilters
Description
The Quilters is a documentary on Netflix that explores the lives of incarcerated men who participate in a quilting program within a Level 5 maximum-security prison in Missouri. The film follows these men as they design, sew, and create personalized quilts for foster children. The documentary highlights the restorative power of art and the sense of purpose, community, and pride that the men find through quilting.
We also discuss Lyle and Erik Menendez's participation in restorative justice programs while incarcerated, including Lyle training guide dogs and his connection with Rosie O'Donnell who got a guide dog to support her child Clay who has autism, as chronicled in the documentary Unleashing Hope: the power of service dogs for autism currently streaming on Hulu. .
