This 75-minute film is the Official Selection of the 2019 USA Film Festival and follows the court proceedings of an unorthodox Texas judge who pioneered the use of Trauma-Informed Interventions and Trust-Based Relational Interventions in her courtroom. The film offers perspectives from the judge, attorneys, social workers and parents.
