Families on Trial
Three women talk candidly about the devastation caused by the arrest and sentencing of a family member. England and Wales has the highest imprisonment rate in Western Europe at 153 per 100,000 of the population; their families are rarely heard. According to Government research, prisoners who are supported and visited by their families are 25% less likely to reoffend than those who have no family contact or support. These visually and emotionally arresting films were commissioned by Prisoners' Families and Friends Service to raise awareness of the difficulties that families of prisoners face in the UK. Produced by wiredvideo.net
