WOMEN OUTSIDE the WALLS

‘…One thing they have in common, their men are behind bars…’Does anyone care, much less think, about the families whose men are in prison? Wives, mothers, sisters and children visiting their men behind bars. The story focuses on three women. A hard working African American with four children. An exotic dancer with her teen-aged daughter, and a wealthy socialite. Each woman has her own story and experiences. They come as often as they are able to. Then one visiting day something happens that will change each of their lives forever. A convicted murderer takes the wealthy socialite hostage in order to escape prison and find his missing daughter. Based in truth and inspired while at the Dixon Correctional Facility waiting to visit a convicted murderer [Cook County Justice]. It was heart breaking to observe the women and children waiting to see their husbands, fathers, sons and brothers who might be incarcerated for years or for life.
