      abstract = {Nationwide, nearly half of released inmates return to  prison within 5 years.  First Degree takes viewers inside  Sing Sing Prison, one of the nation's most infamous  maximum-security prisons, and presents a remarkable program  that has dropped the recidivism rate to under 2%.  Mercy  College has partnered with the prison to provide an  opportunity for inmates to earn a college degree, and with  it, an entirely new life upon release. This inspiring  documentary introduces us to the inmates who are actively  choosing to change their life paths by participating in the  college program, including convicted murderers and gang  members who have now become role models for other inmates.  First Degree shows how the diploma these men earn is far  more than just a piece of paper; it is a second chance at  life itself.},
