Sweethearts of the Prison Rodeo' goes behind prison walls to follow convict cowgirls on their journey to the 2007 Oklahoma State Penitentiary Rodeo. In 2006, female inmates were allowed to participate for the first time. In a state with the highest female incarceration rate in the country, these women share common experiences such as broken homes, drug abuse and alienation from their children. Since 1940, the Oklahoma State Penitentiary has held an annual 'Prison Rodeo'. Part Wild West show and part coliseum-esque spectacle, it's one of the last of its kind - a relic of the American penal system. Prisoners compete on wild-broncs and bucking bulls, risking life-long injuries.

Fue entonces cuando, en medio de apagones, desórdenes callejeros, los asesinatos en serie del ‘Hijo de Sam’ y el auge de la legendaria discoteca Estudio 54, se produjo un prodigio de inspiración absolutamente inesperado: el ascenso del Cosmos de Nueva York, el primer gran equipo norteamericano de fútbol, y de su superestrella Pelé. Adorado de la noche a la mañana por una ciudad obsesionada con la fama y el éxito, el Cosmos encendió la llama del primer amor pasional de Norteamérica con el deporte más popular del planeta. Arrastrado, sin embargo, por el torrente imparable de la fama, el glamour y el desenfreno, el Cosmos encontró su destrucción.
