Across the United States, millions of people are trapped in a cycle of debt, suspended driver’s licenses, and incarceration simply because they cannot afford to pay a ticket or court fine. These aren’t isolated stories. They’re part of a systemic pattern that disproportionately impacts Black, Brown, and low-income communities, criminalizing people not for their actions, but for their economic status. Through short documentary films, digital storytelling, and grassroots collaboration, Fined Out shares the real stories of people navigating these systems and the growing movement working to change them.
