Peter Collins was a Canadian artist and activist who spent 32 years in prison. At 22, he was sentenced to life for killing a police officer during a botched bank robbery. Collins was the kind of man you'd expect to find in prison - and he still didn't belong there. Amoung his cartoons, paintings and articles are heartfelt words from friends, comrades and those who knew him best. 'Free Inside' is a condemnation of the Canadian prison system and an invaluable perspective on notions of justice, "rehabilitation," political activism, and hope. It is an imperfect record of the life and work of a courageous, compassionate man who deserved better from the world."--
