Malqueridas

Malqueridas delves into the lives of female prisoners in a Chilean prison who are serving long-term sentences. These women are also mothers, and their children are forced to grow up without them. In the prison environment, they form bonds of solidarity and love with other prisoners who share similar experiences. The mutual support among these women becomes a form of resistance and liberation. Malqueridas restructures these women's stories through footage they shot themselves with cell phones, which are prohibited in prison. In this process, the collective memory of a forgotten community emerges. The film conveys the hardships, struggles, and solidarity power of these women to the viewers, engaging them in a compelling way. The film successfully reflects the strong spirits and resilience of these women. Malqueridas was filmed in a Chilean prison.
