"The Interrupters" follows three individuals who with bravado, humility and even humor work to protect their Chicago communities from the violence they once employed themselves. From acclaimed director Steve James and bestselling author Alex Kotlowitz, this is an intimate journey into the persistence of violence in our cities. Shot over the course of a year, "The Interrupters" follows these individuals - two men and a woman - as they intervene in disputes before they turn violent. The film captures not only their work, but also their own stories of hope and redemption.
