Within the confines of a Folsom Prison cell, an unusual opportunity presents itself: a four-day group therapy session with some of the prison’s most challenging inmates. Three individuals from the outside world join as observers, but quickly find themselves drawn into a deeply emotional and revealing exploration of past traumas. As the therapy progresses, both the inmates and the outsiders confront painful experiences and personal struggles, forging unexpected connections and ultimately leading to a profound journey of self-discovery.
