HOLLOWAY
HOLLOWAY brings together six women who return to the now-closed Holloway Prison to share deeply personal stories of incarceration, trauma, and transformation. Through their women’s circle, the film explores how failing systems intersect with lived experience, and how sisterhood can create healing and change.
Directed by Daisy-May Hudson and Sophie Compton, this deeply moving documentary feature was made using a unique process of a trauma-informed co-creation with six contributors: Aliyah Ali, Mandy Ogunmokun, Sarah Cassidy, Lady Unchained, Gerrah, and Tamar Mujanay.
HOLLOWAY is a profound, meditative, eye-opening and ultimately inspiring exploration of trauma and the immense human capacity for recovery.
