Film Description
An unflinching emotional drama charting a mother's struggle to raise her child in extraordinary circumstances and her fight for their survival and freedom.
Julia (Martina Gusman awakes in her apartment one morning, bruised and bloodied, to discover a horrific scene, her partner Nahuel stabbed to death and their lover Ramiro severely injured, though still alive. Unable to offer an explanation for the course of events and with the only other suspect still unconscious in hospital, Julia is quickly arrested for murder, pending trial. Denied parole due to the severity of the crime and now found to be pregnant, Julia is transferred to a secure wing for mothers and their babies in one of Argentina's most notorious prisons. Befriended by a fellow inmate, Julia must now come to terms not only with her new life of incarceration but with the impending birth of her son and motherhood behind bars.
Shot entirely on location, largely in Batán Penitentiary, Buenos Aires.
