Edie Falco and Jay Duplass’ new film, Outside In, is a very humanist look at a newly released ex-convict who is struggling to adjust to the world after 20 years in prison, and who forms a close bond with his former high school teacher. Falco and Duplass feel making art that creates empathy, like Outside In, is more important than ever, considering the times we’re living in.
