NEW! Videotaped by inmates at a women's prison, "Game Over: Women in Prison,"
was produced to discourage girls from falling into a life of crime. It shows
young women and girls what can happen by hanging out with the wrong crowd,
doing drugs or being in a gang. Inmates share heartfelt stories about what led
them to prison and what prison life is really like. They explain how they lose
their identities: they are allowed no personal items, everyone has a number,
is required to wear the same clothes (used, not new) and is subjected to
random room searches.
According to one prison inmate, "You better kiss that Vidal Sassoon
goodbye. You better not hope you're getting any Neutrogena lotion, you're not
getting no curling irons..."
"Any high schooler who is feeling invincible and figures that listening
to authority doesn't matter or that committing crimes won't affect her, would
benefit from this haunting video."
