Świat zza krat · dir. Adam Tarnowski
Poland 2009, 24’

This is the document about an unusual place and remarkable people, who get the next chance. About superiors, who believe in them since …no one should be perceived as unable to moral transformation. An interesting thing in the film is the soundtrack created by the prisoners’ band.
