Follow the dramatic and emotional stories of a group of pregnant inmates at the Indiana Women's Prison, in the US, which runs a unique scheme allowing some prisoners to keep their children on the ‘baby wing’.

With a 400 per cent increase in the number of incarcerated women in the US in the last 30 years, thousands of babies are born in American prisons every year, meaning competition for places on Indiana’s baby wing is fierce. Many prison mothers have their babies taken away from them 24 hours after giving birth, but a few lucky ones are permitted to keep their babies in the Indiana facility’s unique prison nursery.

Featuring births, babies and often intensely emotional scenes, this series uses powerful personal stories to pose questions about how the American criminal justice system deals with women and children and how the bond between mother and child survives the harsh realities of life behind bars.
