Women make up about 10% of Singapore's prison population. And inside the walls of Institution A4, at the Changi Prison Complex, are about 800 female inmates, incarcerated for various offences.
From the 5:30 AM headcount to the emotional strain of parenting through a screen, these women share their deepest struggles with addiction, the heartbreak of "prison breakups," and the constant battle to stay sober in a cycle of incarceration. Watch as we explore the complex social hierarchy of the "cell shuffle," the secret ways inmates celebrate birthdays with improvised treats, and the intense psychological toll of trying to find a "sense of belonging" in a place built for punishment. This is a story of regret, resilience, and the desperate hope for a second chance.
Only Human celebrates and explores the unique and personal qualities we all have. Our channel offers a range of TV series and documentaries about human experiences and life journeys - while looking at the challenges life throws at us, turning ordinary people into everyday heroes.
