In EVOLUTION OF A CRIMINAL, filmmaker Darius Clark Monroe asks this very question -- about himself. After seeing his mother and stepfather struggle to make ends meet while living outside of Houston, Texas, Monroe decided to help them by robbing a bank with two friends. In the film, Monroe interviews his family members, close friends and mentors who recount the stages of his transformation, going from a joyous childhood to the moment he realized the severity of his family's financial problems, and how their struggles changed his outlook on society and his life as a whole.
