Sinopse
Inmates at a prison in Rome rehearse for a performance of Shakespeare's Julius Caesar.

After emerging from solitary confinement to find an all-new gang of bullies picking on a meek, young female prisoner, Mayumi is now a much harder soul who takes no attitude from anyone, and she turns savage when the poor girl is enslaved by Yakuza.
A húngara que transportaria do Rio de Janeiro para Budapeste diamantes camuflados em três quilos de cocaína; o eslovaco que, afundado em dívidas de jogo, pensou em uma forma “rápida e fácil de ganhar muito dinheiro”; o líbio que teve “alguma coisa ilegal” encontrada na mala. Esses são alguns dos oito personagens do documentário “Ela sonhou que eu morri”, dos paulistanos Matias Mariani e Maíra Bühler, premiado no Festival de Paulínia (SP). Todos os presos são estrangeiros que relatam não apenas o que os levou à prisão, mas também passagens da vida pessoal anterior às grades e o sonho de deixá-las.
Prizefighter Jimmy Nolan, facing an opportunity to get a championship fight, is knocked out when he sustains what is apparently a permanent injury to his arm. From there, Nolan's path leads downhill.

After his prison term, Nolan makes a spectacular comeback in a fight which proves his courage and integrity, while disproving the fallacy about the old sports adage that "they never come back."
Famous New Yorkers and the pooches they love are the focus of this refreshingly honest and endearing series of interviews that celebrates the meaningful connections people share with their pups.

The topic of this routine, romantic drama is a little unusual - it concerns what some prisoners do when they are allowed out of jail for two weeks before their sentences are up. Rather than receiving some special dispensation, it turns out that in Yugoslavia this was the custom. Most of the time, the men here are engaged in pursuits that forward their relationships with the fairer sex, as might be expected after a long and lonely incarceration. There is nothing particularly profound about their two weeks of liberty, and no deep message in the tale.
