Synopsis: Can love for those behind bars heal the wounds of a country ravaged by over 20 years of civil war and gang violence? On October 15th, 2008, the Downpour Crew will travel with Pastor Tom Flaskerud and the Freedom Team as they bring their faith and love to 20 federal prisons across El Salvador.
The Freedom Team has been bringing hope to prisons in Mexico and the United States for 25 years. Now, the president of El Salvador has personally invited the Freedom Team to aide in the healing of his country, a land devastated by decades of violence.

What makes Freedom Behind Bars different?
After years of violence, we are on the cusp of change and renewal for the country of El Salvador. As the hearts of gang leaders in Central America change the shock waves will be felt around the world. These men lead violent organizations throughout Central America that have a presence in almost every major US city.
As peace comes to El Salvador, peace will come to the US. We will be there to see the catalysts for this change.
This project will appeal to both people of faith and the secular market. The focus will be how one man's love and compassion can be enough to change a country.

| We just returned from El Salvador and what an amazing trip it was. In the 2 weeks before leaving we were able to raise well over $15,000 to cover the cost of the trip. We have returned with over 150 hours of footage to go through. After the first of the year we will be relocating our offices to Oregon and we will begin work on the post-production. |
