Movie Reviews of Omar & Pete

Movie Review: omar & pete
Summary: 5 Stars

Thank you pete for the insight at the end. If you have a recovering addict in your family, this may be good for them to see. I realize that drug addiction is a diesease, but pete prove it can be beaten. My mother has been an drug addict for 22 years, I am gonna let her see this. It was positive and sad. With so many black men in jail, I see many of them are addicts first. to bad for omar he made the wrong choices. A thats what life is all about....the choices we make...worth while...

Summary of Omar & Pete

A "vivid, sobering portrait" that "packs considerable cumulative punch" (Variety) OMAR & PETE is a compelling and highly personal film that examines the social, economic, and personal barriers two ex-offenders face as they try to reintegrate into their communities and families. In and out of prison for more than 30 years, Omar and Pete are determined to change their lives. Upon release, both participate in the Maryland Reentry Program, which is designed to help long-term repeat offenders stay out of prison. This intimate and penetrating film follows the two long-time friends for several years after what they hope will be their final prison release. In that time, their lives take divergent paths as one wrestles with addiction and fear while the other finds success and freedom through helping others. Their story boldly exposes the many barriers to successful reintegration and the complex, often frustrating challenges that men who were formerly incarcerated face when reentering society. Written, produced, and directed by Academy Award nominated and Emmy award-winning filmmaker Tod Lending, OMAR & PETE provides an honest and unflinching portrait of how challending life on the outside can be for men who have lived much of their lives behind bars.
