Asia Insight - Season 1 - Eps 12: The Dancing Prisoners
Dance has always been an integral part of Philippine culture and Filipinos love to dance. Now it is being used as a way to rehabilitate inmates serving time in prison. Being part of a dance troupe gives inmates a sense of belonging and accomplishment with authorities reporting that regular dance sessions contribute to their better physical and mental health and also improves discipline. With special permission to film inside these prison communities we focus on this unique rehabilitation program through the lives of several current and former inmates.
