Herman's House, a documentary by Toronto filmmaker Angad Singh Bhalla, will be premiering at the 2012 Hot Docs film festival.

The film documents the symbiosis between a prisoner and an artist. Jackie Sumell is a New York artist aching to make her political art more immediate, and relevant. Herman Wallace is a convicted bank robber sadly distinguished for having spent more time in solitary confinement than any other prisoner in America.
