Six women return to the now abandoned Holloway Prison to take part in a women’s circle. Sharing some of the most intimate experiences of their lives, they each unravel what led them to prison, building an eye-opening portrait of failing systems and trauma, while discovering their extraordinary capacity to heal through sisterhood.

Directed by BAFTA Breakthrough Brit Daisy-May Hudson and EMMY nominated Sophie Compton, this deeply moving and transformational documentary feature was made via a unique process of a trauma-informed co-creation with six contributors, a group of incredibly talented, high profile women who are running charities and using their lived-experience to call for change. They are Aliyah Ali, Mandy Ogunmokun, Sarah Cassidy, Lady Unchained, Gerrah, and Tamar Mujanay.

The film had its world premiere at the BFI London Film Festival, where it won the Audience Award for Best Documentary. Its international premiere was at Hot Docs Film Festival in Canada, in competition for the Academy Award Qualifying Best International Documentary
