Plot

Blending reality with imagination, this docudrama paints a gritty picture of Naples. Director Ferra explores the lives of women incarcerated at the high-security Pozzuoli State Prison, conducting poignant interviews that reveal their experiences before and after incarceration. However, the narrative extends beyond prison walls, delving into the harsh realities of Naples’ slums and the efforts of law enforcement and social workers striving to uplift the impoverished community. To enrich the experience, Ferrara integrates three fictional vignettes, shot with digital equipment, enhancing the film's exploration of hope amidst despair.
