Free on Bail merges six songs and seven poems into a cinematic ritual — a visual album about self-esteem, faith, and liberation through art. Guided by a tarot reader, a young Black gay man embarks on a spiritual journey through the tarot to heal his wounds, confront rejection, and rediscover the meaning of freedom.
