Miss Gulag, a female women's prison documentary

Through the prism of a beauty pageant staged by female inmates of a Siberian prison camp emerges a complex narrative of the lives of the first generation of women in Post-Soviet Russia. For these women, undoubtedly, life is harsh under the constant surveillance of UF-91/9, but it is no less so on the outside. Today they, their families, and loved ones are sustained by hope for a better life upon release. 

Their survival is told from both sides of the fence. bye... bye.
