Tom and Mattie had the wonderful opportunity of interviewing Rex Bloomstein, the veteran filmmaker behind Strangeways (1980), Lifer (1983), and many more socially engaging works. If that were not enough, our hosts attended a one-off screening of Rex's new film A Second Chance, which follows the Timpson initiative of hiring ex-prisoners: a beautiful, stripped-back, human documentary.
