Plots(1)
After a doomed attempt to escape from an open prison, two young women are recaptured and locked up in a closed women's borstal, where violence and cruelty are rife and only the tough can survive. For Annetta (Chrissie Cotterill) the hardest thing is the separation from her child. Fellow inmate Carol (Amanda York) faces heartbreak of a different kind, when she discovers her girlfriend Doreen has fallen in love with someone else. (StudioCanal UK)
