Description:
This compelling documentary delves into the raw and unpredictable world of a notorious Clark County Jail in Indiana. Instead of employing undercover officers or journalists, the filmmakers took an unprecedented approach by enlisting seven innocent volunteers to live among the general population for two full months. The catch? None of the other inmates, officers, or staff members knew these individuals were secretly incarcerated.Throughout this 60-day experiment, the volunteers are thrust into a complex and dangerous social environment that challenges their preconceived notions about crime, punishment, and justice. The camera captures every moment of tension, camaraderie, and despair as these ordinary individuals navigate the treacherous waters of life behind bars.The result is an intimate and eye-opening portrayal of the human spirit in adversity, as well as a poignant examination of how societal expectations can influence our perceptions of guilt and innocence. By blurring the line between participant and observer, this documentary offers a rare and powerful perspective on life within America's correctional facilities.
