The story of a young Egyptian Muslim in prison, in love with painting and resistant to the fundamentalists, and that of three women of different nationalities, farmers, students and they too imprisoned: two documentaries made inside the Rebibbia prison in which the institution is not just an enforced place of residence, but is transformed into an opportunity for personal and collective redemption.
