The stories of seven free women who choose to remain captive in the name of love. In love with imprisoned men, they experience the limitations of their relationships and the hopes of one day constituting a family outside prison walls. The film examines how these marriages function, what they are capable of building up or destroying in the lives of these women. Their universe is glimpsed at through a series of emotional statements, letters lovingly adorned and privileged access to the couples’ intimate moments.
