Desc: Banged Up Abroad: Directed by Alexandra Lacey, Bart Layton, Phil Lott, Finn McGough, Katinka Newman. With Ricardo Cañamar, Gemma Cousins, Matthew Oats, Ryan Thor. This series tells the true stories that would be any traveler's worst nightmare--when moments of madness or desperation in paradise become a journey into hell that ends up in prison abroad. Through graphic dramatic reconstructions, each film tells the story of someone who's been arrested and thrown into a foreign prison. Sometimes for smuggling drugs. Sometimes for falling foul of local corrupt policemen. Sometimes for being duped into carrying illegal goods through customs. Each film follows the sinking sense of horror from the build-up to the moment of arrest, the journey through an incomprehensible legal process, the coming-to-terms with the details of life in a hellhole jail, and the devastating fallout for family and friends back home.
