My name is Caroline, I am a documentary director from Sweden, I am currently developing a feature documentary about women/men who have fallen in love with women/men who are incarcerated.
I came across an amazing woman recently who have been in a relationship with someone behind bars for years. They started writing letters to each other, and from there their love grew bigger and bigger, but it came with a price, the girl's family turned their back on her, as they didn't understand her choice.
Her story inspired me and therefore I have decided to make a documentary about the love behind bars, a chance for people to tell their story without any judgement! I want to show that love can come out of letters! That this kind of love is as real as any other relationship just with a few complications. I want to make an observational portrait of any person, who's taken a risk to be with the man/woman they love at any cost!
I am interested to hear if you have any thoughts on the matter, what has been been your experience?
How did you meet your MWI?
If your are interested in participating in this documentary, please email me at caroline.ingvarsson [at] gmail.comrel="nofollow". The film's focus will be on people who have met their love through letters, but I am really interested in anyone's story! What's your story, current situation and what are your hopes for the future?
We are especially looking for people from Scandinavia and Europe.
