Prison Town, USA is a 2007 documentary film about Su-
sanville, California, a small, rural town that tries to resus-
citate its economy by building a prison. The film follows
four men, their families, and how they react to the new
institution: Lonnie Tyler, a prisoner, Dawayne Brasher
and Gabe Jones, guards, and Mike O’Kelly, a dairyman
threatened by how the prison could affect the communi-
ty’s buy-local policy.[1]
Prison Town, USA was written, produced, and directed
by Katie Galloway and Po Kutchins and was aired as part
of the P.O.V. series on PBS.
