Documentary

Can a person’s life have meaning again once she has done something truly horrible? Female inmates at a maximum-security prison grapple with their violent crimes in a workshop led by Eve Ensler. They confront the lives they’ve ruined, the families left behind, and their own lives as they might have been. The film builds to a performance of the group’s work by Glenn Close, Rosie Perez, and others.
