about sentenced
Filmed from the point of view of ethnically diverse adults and children who have never learned to read, SENTENCED is a forceful yet tender tale of how literacy can free children from the cycles of generational poverty.
The creators of SENTENCED are honored to partner with Stephen (4x NBA champion) and Ayesha Curry (Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation) to bring you this immersive and vulnerable exploration of the epidemic of childhood illiteracy. We hope this powerful and heartbreaking story will inspire 1,000,000 volunteers into the cause of early childhood literacy.
