Giudecca

Broken lives, hidden truths, and the fragile path to redemption

Set inside a progressive women's prison on Venice's Giudecca island, an art workshop becomes a space for four inmates—Jenni, Rachida, Patrizia, and Giulia—to paint their self-portraits and share their pasts. Through stories of violence, guilt, survival, and broken bonds, the documentary explores how forced confinement ultimately sparks a profound process of self-reflection and personal awareness.
