Prisoners in a level 5 maximum security prison in Missouri are the subject of a new and award-winning short documentary out on Netflix this week.
The Quilters follows a group of men inside the South Central Correctional Center, where, every Monday to Friday they head to a special sewing space inside the prison and work on quilts to give to local foster care children.
It's an intimate look at the men's struggles, triumphs and sense of pride in creating something beautiful while behind bars. Documentary director Jenifer McShane speaks to Susie.
