2021 Chicago Digital Media Production Fund Grantee

An offline and online installation, HALF TRUTHS AND FULL LIES depicts the case of E.Paredes, a Latinx man sentenced to life without parole at age 15, for a murder he claims he didn't commit. The project probes truth-telling in both the media and the law, through conflicting testimonies on the case.
