Award-winning director Jonathan Stack follows up his critically-acclaimed documentary The Farm.
This time he reconnects with the inmates of Angola prison in Louisiana.
In The Farm, Jonathan spent a year in the maximum security prison.
He followed the lives of six prisoners whose crimes were so serious they were likely to face the death penalty.
Now in this documentary, we discover he has kept in touch with them and the warden, Burl Cain.
But how is life for the lifers? In this strangely poignant film we find out the how life on the inside has affected their mind, bodies and souls.
Do family still visit? How have they adapted to prison life? And do they even remember life in the real world or have their memories faded?
Find out when True Stories: Maximum Jail is showing on TV.
