Deaths in Solitary ConfinementThe Prison System's Blind Spot

In the disciplinary wing, a prison within a prison, inmates die under unexplained circumstances. Their families want to know the truth and file lawsuits against the prison administration. One of them is Mahamadou, whose brother Amara died less than 30 minutes after being admitted to the isolation cell. The documentary tells the story of how he, Sambaly's sister, and Sacha's parents – whose brother and son also died in solitary confinement – fight for transparency. Their story, along with previously unpublished testimonies from guards and former inmates, sheds light on one of the darkest places in the French Republic.
