''Beyond Conviction'' is a 2006
documentary film directed and produced by Rachel Libert that tells the story of three crime victims as they prepare to meet the people who committed these crimes. The film follows participants in a program based on the principles of
restorative justice, run by the state of
Pennsylvania, in which victims of the most violent crimes meet face-to-face with their perpetrators.
In 2006, the film was presented at the
Los Angeles Film Festival, the Woodstock Film Festival, the
Viennale, and the Leeds Film Festival. The film tied for the Audience Choice Award for Documentary Feature with ''
