About the film

Rinaldas Tomaševičius’s film is neither the first nor, most likely, the last to look at life behind bars. The lives of those who have made mistakes are usually neither interesting nor appealing. Isn’t that precisely the purpose and role of isolation from society? Tomaševičius, who has experienced life on the margins and in the shadows of society, creates a film that is unique in its multilayered, sensitive, unpolished documentary approach. Do even those who have fallen the lowest deserve a second chance? Beneath the rough language, chilling stories, and isolated daily lives of prisoners, the director manages to reveal that even under the most hopeless circumstances, humanity remains a possibility.
