Seven young fathers in prison sign-up for an education programme. They attempt to rise up the prison pecking order, but they’re confronted with more than expected, as they face up to their relationships with their children, their own fathers and ultimately themselves.

Self-deceptions, vulnerabilities, and failed hopes and dreams are revealed, unleashing anger and violence that the workshop leaders struggle to contain. A moving, edgy and honest production of real life stories from today’s UK criminal justice system.
