A prison sentence isn’t over once you leave jail. Having just begun to rebuild a life on the outside, Marie is confronted with her past when former cellmate Lorraine shows up unannounced on her doorstep. The two outcasts, once so close on the inside, struggle to navigate a friendship beyond the prison walls—which may threaten their prospects to start over.

About This Wide Night

What is the Story of This Wide Night?
In This Wide Night, young former prison inmate Marie is back on the outside, living alone in a bleak UK apartment with little but a television for company. Her sequestered, isolated life is interrupted by an unexpected visit from Lorraine, her one-time cellmate, newly released after serving hard time for committing a violent crime. Both at loose ends as they try to assimilate into a society that has rejected them, Lorraine and Marie struggle to get comfortable in their “rehabilitated” skin—and struggle harder to leave the complicated ties which bind them back behind bars.
