Within these confines, friendships are formed that transcend the confines of a sentence, but some inmates can switch alliances in the blink of an eye, as that is all part of the inherent complexities of being confined. In this environment, individuals are separated from their loved ones and forced to form a surrogate family with women they would seldom associate with outside these walls, let alone consider friends.

Nevertheless, these women are willing to endure any hardship to achieve their goals.
