MUMBAI:
The stories to be featured are as follows:
Women
on Death Row: Profiles three women awaiting execution, each
convicted of committing murder. This programme dramatically retells
their stories and examines the contradiction between the feminine,
maternal and in most cases, loving aspects of womanhood, with the
horrible, rage-filled murders they committed.
The
Execution Protocol: The Potosi Correctional Centre's 300 inmates
face the rest of their life in the state-of-the-art Missouri jail,
serving life imprisonment without parole or, for 79 of them, the
death penalty. The Execution Protocol reveals what happens when
the state takes a life.
The
Real Bad Girls: This access all areas observational series takes
the viewer deep within the walls of one of Britain's top security
women's prisons. The very personal stories, intimate desires and
frank confessions of both prisoners and staff are just some of the
revelations laid bare within the confines of Bullwood Hall jail.
Death
Row Diaries: Takes an in-depth look behind some of the most
compelling crime stories in America. Sentenced to death, those convicted
reveal their secrets, motives and feelings about the crimes in their
own words. Relatives of both the victims and convicted criminals
give their thoughts on the crime and re-enactments reveal the chilling
reality of what happened.
Love
Behind Bars: An intriguing look at the surprising world of marriages,
love affairs and old-fashioned romance that takes place despite
and sometimes because of the prison walls. These romances
and relationships are not for the faint-hearted and are played out
in starkly lit visiting rooms under the watchful eyes of prison
guards. From the jailhouse wedding between a mugger and his assailant
to the 30th wedding anniversary of a couple who have two kids that
were conceived during conjugal visits and the hopeful female convict
meeting her first date through an online prison dating service,
these are the tales of Love Behind Bars.The free men and women who
are involved with inmates pay a steep price. How do they cope with
such difficult and demanding relationships? How do they prevail
against the odds?
Also
in the programme is a feature entitled Sex Behind Bars, which looks
at sexual violence in prisons and the impact of family visits on
this brutal practice.
