Mario's Story Movie Review

There are stories that need to be shared. This is one story you want to watch. Based on the true life story of Mario Rocha.

In 1998, Mario Rocha, a young Latino kid from East LA, was convicted of murder and attempted murder on the basis of one eyewitness identification and no physical evidence. He was 16 years old at the time of his arrest, yet tried as an adult and sentenced to spend the rest of his life in prison. Mario's chances of regaining his freedom are less than 1 percent. This inspiring film interweaves Mario's story and writings as an inmate in one of California's toughest prisons, with the efforts of an unexpected group of people who have come together to win his freedom.

This is an excellent documentary and if want to spend an evening watching movie, put this on the list.
