Captives
2011 · Documentary · 46 min. · Spain
“Being a woman and being poor is a double burden”. The prison population may represent the lack of protection to which the Mexican woman is subject. The worst part is not only the sub-human conditions in which they live. In an intense co-habitation with the internees in Tepepan (Mexico City), the majority confess that they are better inside the prison than on the outside.
