A funny, eerie, irreverent, hearts-and-minds-shifting live-documentary, The Passion of Pauline doesn’t just want to tell an activist’s story — it looks to further her mission.

Activist Pauline Campbell sacrificed everything fighting to improve or outright abolish prisons, so, of course, the government tried to lock her up in one. But if a criminal trial is nothing but a pompous gameshow, why can’t you and I go back and do a TV rerun?!

Oh, and we’ll be playing against talking chimpanzees… Lots and lots… of talking chimpanzees.
