Herman's House is a documentary film, directed by Angad Singh Bhalla and released in 2012.[1] An American, British and Canadian coproduction, the film profiles Herman Wallace, a member of the Angola Three who had been in prison for over 40 years after his shorter prison term for bank robbery was extended with a disputed conviction for a murder he did not commit, and Jackie Sumell, a conceptual artist who has launched a project of building the dream house Wallace wishes he could live in if he is ever released from prison.[2]
Wallace is never shown in the film, and instead is heard only in recorded telephone conversations with Sumell.[3]
