THE FILM
IN HER SHOES takes you behind prison walls into an art class where women incarcerated for such crimes like petty theft, prostitution and murder reflect on their lives through the shoes they have worn. Confronting stories of sex abuse, violence and addiction, they find the confidence and courage to envision taking their next step.
