Brandon and Royal change lives through firefighting in Firebreak. The two men met fighting wildfires while imprisoned in California’s penal system. Now, despite institutional barriers, personal financial pressure, and mounting environmental dangers, they are training other formerly incarcerated firefighters to become professionals and join their new, self-owned department. Firebreak is a documentary feature that chronicles a reentry success story forged from climate justice, ingenuity and grit.
