Spain has over 4,000 women in its prisons, the equivalent of 8% of the total incarcerated population. This is the highest percentage in Europe.

Ariadna's Thrad. Women in prison takes a closer look at the reasons behind this phenomenon. Eight women - prisoners and ex-prisoners - tell their stories and reflect on how they changed while doing their sentences. The documentary shows how some of these women can find their way out of the labyrinth - hence achieving social reinsertion - with help often provided more by association volunteers than by the official institutions.
