Prison Terminal: The Last Days of Private Jack Hall “PRISON TERMINAL: THE LAST DAYS OF PRIVATE JACK HALL … breaks through the walls of one of Americas oldest maximum security prisons to tell the story of the final months in the life of a terminally ill prisoner and the hospice volunteers, they themselves prisoners, who care for him. The film draws from footage shot over a six-month period behind the walls of the Iowa State Penitentiary and provides a fascinating and often poignant account of how the hospice experience can profoundly touch even the forsaken lives of the incarcerated.” http://www.prisonterminal.com/ Free and open to the public. Discussion to follow with Prison Terminal director Edgar Barens via skype. Presented by the Ithaca College Gerontology Institute in partnership with the Department of Philosophy and Religion.
