| Description: | To mark the 2010 National Pro Bono Celebration, the UT Law Pro Bono Program will screen "Mario's Story," the award-winning documentary film about Mario Rocha, a young Latino wrongly convicted of murder. The movie "interweaves Rocha's story as an inmate in one of California's toughest maximum-security prisons with the efforts of an unlikely group of people who have come together to win his freedom. They include Sister Janet Harris, the feisty and unstoppable former chaplain at Central Juvenile Hall, Mario's pro-bono attorneys at Latham and Watkins, an aspiring filmmaker turned private detective, and Mario's large Mexican-American family." |
| Location: | I. Francis Auditorium, TNH 2.114. |
