Synopsis

For 18 months, three women in prison, whose faces cannot be filmed, take part in a self-portrait class which pushes them to the extremes of introspection. Louise, Titit and Enza confront their own images – both hidden and revealed – and question their “inner prison”. On paper, a wound becomes a shadow, one’s image turns out to be a blurry shape, and memories flow off the tip of a brush. The film discretely and empathetically works its way through prison bars to fearlessly break through others, much deeper ones.
