About the movie
Divine G, imprisoned at Sing Sing for a crime he didn't commit, finds purpose by acting in a theatre group alongside other men in prison, in this story of resilience, humanity, and the transformative power of art.
Based on the real-life Rehabilitation Through the Arts (RTA) program at Sing Sing Maximum Security Prison, the film follows a group of incarcerated men creating theatrical stage productions. Through theatre, these prisoners reclaim agency, autonomy, and self-expression in an environment where these qualities are routinely stripped away as part of the punishment. Sing Sing offers a heartfelt, honest, and unflinching portrayal of how the arts can transform lives behind bars, guiding individuals on a path of healing and change.

About our workbook
Our workbooks are an essential part of our Home Ground integration process. These books are carefully curated with artworks, creative practices, resources, and wellbeing tools. We introduce wāhine to these workbooks at the start of each project, and they are a great way to get to know Home Ground and continue creative practice from home.
"The book Home Ground has created is full of colour, and inspiration, and hope. The quality of the book itself is beautiful, which makes you want to put quality work in it. The workbook is far more than just an activity book, it is more like your own customised journal. The activities are unique and unexpected".

Why Your Support Matters
By attending our Movie Fundraiser, you’ll be directly contributing to an initiative that has a meaningful impact on the wāhine in our community.
The proceeds from this event will go towards reprinting our workbooks—resources that are crucial to the Home Ground integration process. These workbooks are not just books; they are tools for self-discovery, growth, and connection. They help our participants deepen their creative practice, reflect on their personal journeys, and foster a sense of belonging within our community.
For many, these books serve as a bridge—connecting the experiences of our workshops with the everyday lives of participants, enabling them to continue their practice at home, or whenever inspiration strikes.
Every ticket you purchase, every donation you make, reinforces the importance of community and shared experiences. Your support in reprinting the workbooks will extend their positive impact.
