Don’t people have the right to a second chance even after serious crimes? But then how to protect their environment from reoffending? With these questions filmmaker Wolfgang Luck travels to Ludwigshafen’s jail. There he meets a man who murdered his wife and is now prepared with the help of extensive therapy offerings for life in freedom. His social worker sees that quite pragmatic: maybe our prisoners are ticking time bombs but our job is to disarm them.
But how reliable are such treatments: will they turn dangerous criminals to average citizens willing to integrate?
