This photobook takes you inside Latin America's overcrowded prisons - quiet moments, hard truths, and the dignity of the forgotten.
From the publisher:
What does daily life look like for the prisoners inside a Latin American Prison? Over a period of more than ten years, Swedish photojournalist Pablo Torres has visited and documented six different prisons in Latin America. In this photobook, he shows an uncensored reality behind the bars.
The images provide a rare insight into the inmates' living conditions and daily challenges. The book also places a strong focus on the specific situation of imprisoned women, a group that is rarely noticed. It is an honest and close-up documentary work about survival in an extreme environment.
