Women caught up in the criminal justice system tell their own stories in this film about drug policy and its consequences. The subjects range from mothers and grandmothers to young women early in their lives, each describing how arrest, conviction, and addiction reshaped their circumstances. Interviews with policy experts sit alongside the personal accounts, adding statistics on incarceration and drug enforcement to ground the individual stories in a larger pattern. The film pays particular attention to how these policies land differently on women of color, tracing a thread from drug law to courtroom to the practical fallout in these women's daily lives. Rather than treating the subjects as case studies, the film lets them narrate their own histories, alternating between hardship and moments of recovery. The sources available for this title are thin on names, locations, and specific cases, so this description stays general where the film itself likely gets specific.
