Inside Out (1): The Prison Officers' Film

Prison officers in Swansea feel overwhelmed by the number of prisoners in their care which stifles any attempt at rehabilitation. The lack of resources constantly places them in vulnerable situations. It's only due to the good will of the prisoners that the system can work at all. The system is collapsing and the prison officers feel, like the prisoners, that nobody wants to know - 'out of sight, out of mind'.
