A frank and true insight into life as a female prisoner in Ireland. You can meet every type of woman in Mountjoy; from the homeless, impoverished, drug addicted repeat offenders to white-collar criminals, drug mules and murderers.
This observational documentary shows, through the eyes of the prisoners we meet, the issues facing both them and the prison service. Women serving time for robbery, manslaughter and drug smuggling give us an insight not only into prison life, but also into the lives that lead them to prison and indeed into Irish society today.
