License Pardon Me

Pardon Me is not just a film about second chances — it’s a blueprint for reclaiming power. At the same time that presidential pardons have been used at the highest levels of government to shield insiders and political allies, Pardon Me shows how ordinary people, families, and communities can use that very same process to heal, restore dignity, and break cycles of harm.

Born from Shuja Moore’s own journey from incarceration to advocacy, the film and its impact campaign teach viewers how to navigate pardons, challenge stigma, and transform criminal justice from the ground up. In an era of deep political division and attacks on truth, Pardon Me functions as a cultural intervention — equipping communities with the knowledge, tools, and hope to rewrite their own narratives when systems fail them.
