Barbara is a filmmaker who is in the process of making a film about prison life. Twice a week, she visits a prison in the suburbs of Paris to interview inmates who will both write and act in the film.

Their love for one another will lead them to break the law… Part of Rendez-Vous with French Cinema 2011.
