2015-12-23 4

They’ve spent years imagining the day when they’ll finally gain their freedom. Now that the moment has arrived, it feels surreal. This series follows three ex-convicts attempting to rebuild their lives and adjust to a world on the outside that has changed significantly in the time they’ve been locked away.

Sergey spent almost eight years behind bars, for which he blames a former friend. Now that he is finally being released from prison, he intends never to return. However, to live an honest lifestyle, he must find a job. He has a responsibility to support his father as well as to pay his daughter's child support. Unfortunately, suitable vacancies are very poorly paid and employers are wary of hiring an ex-con. Still, Sergey remains optimistic as one of his friends has promised to help him find work. Does the offer still stand?
