Somewhere in Colorado. A godforsaken place of 36,000 souls and 13 prisons, one of which is Supermax, the new Alcatraz, whose corridors lead only to death. This is Prison Valley, a road movie in a prison city where even those living on the outside live on the inside. Total immersion in what people here proudly call ‘the prison industry’.

In the last few minutes, the Prison Valley pre-website has come online.

Over the last few months, I’ve been working on this web documentary with Philippe Brault and the team at Upian with Arte as our co-producers.

Over the last few days, we’ve been editing with Cédric Delport to the sounds of DJ Toty.

Go ahead and sign up. You’re in for some surprises. And more news soon.

Tell your friends. Thanks a lot.
