In an exclusive interview, Kemba and director Kelley Kali share insights into the making of the film, its impact, and the ongoing mission to secure clemency for others, like Michelle West, ensnared by unjust sentencing laws.
"Kemba" was inspired by the true story of the Kemba Smith Pradia, the executive producer of the film with Nick Reid of the nonprofit MPI Original Films. They hope it will help serve as a catalyst for change in the criminal justice system and as a cautionary tale for young women to avoid the traps that ensnared Kemba, including violence against women.
