1
00:00:20,941 --> 00:00:23,581
Drugs, drugs again, murder.

2
00:01:02,781 --> 00:01:08,341
What I saw was really like war.

3
00:03:38,501 --> 00:03:43,101
That is not mine!

4
00:03:44,941 --> 00:03:51,701
Please have mercy on me. Have mercy on me!

5
00:03:58,381 --> 00:04:04,341
I am not a drug pusher.

6
00:06:19,981 --> 00:06:21,501
Up your hands. Like this.

7
00:06:27,621 --> 00:06:30,781
-To identify you as a PDL.
-A PDL?

8
00:06:30,861 --> 00:06:32,741
Persons deprived of liberty.

9
00:06:38,741 --> 00:06:39,741
Right index.

10
00:06:42,901 --> 00:06:44,101
You may proceed now.

11
00:08:17,021 --> 00:08:19,701
-How are you doing? I am Raphael.
-J.R., and…

12
00:08:27,821 --> 00:08:28,861
Drugs.

13
00:08:33,101 --> 00:08:34,181
Seven months.

14
00:08:35,981 --> 00:08:37,701
It's my first time here.

15
00:08:39,701 --> 00:08:41,141
-Meth. Yeah.
-Meth.

16
00:08:56,541 --> 00:09:01,461
We cannot do anything
but endure our situation now.

17
00:09:24,741 --> 00:09:27,821
This is the written rules
inside the Dorm 4.

18
00:09:28,581 --> 00:09:30,741
You can see "patakaranan ng Dorm 4,"

19
00:09:30,821 --> 00:09:34,181
meaning "respect all the hierarchy
of Dorm 4."

20
00:09:35,381 --> 00:09:37,341
No, they're all prisoners.

21
00:09:42,461 --> 00:09:43,341
Yeah, written rules.

22
00:09:44,981 --> 00:09:47,381
If you get bump to the visitors,

23
00:09:47,461 --> 00:09:52,781
you will get 50 slap of the paddle.

24
00:10:00,621 --> 00:10:03,141
Accidentally.
Also… No questions at all.

25
00:10:04,701 --> 00:10:07,661
Oh, just like this kind of wood.

26
00:10:13,941 --> 00:10:15,341
-Fifty?
-Fifty.

27
00:10:51,381 --> 00:10:52,501
Lie down.

28
00:10:53,501 --> 00:10:55,141
They sleep just like that.

29
00:11:02,901 --> 00:11:04,781
To get some space with…

30
00:11:04,861 --> 00:11:11,421
To survive here, you have
to learn to get along with others.

31
00:12:24,341 --> 00:12:25,701
-What's your name?
-Akashi.

32
00:12:33,021 --> 00:12:34,301
You sweep the floor.

33
00:12:34,381 --> 00:12:37,301
-Sweep… On my own? With who?
-You sweep the floor.

34
00:12:37,381 --> 00:12:39,781
-To across there?
-Other girls, make a line.

35
00:12:48,221 --> 00:12:51,341
-Been here three months.
-And what's that for?

36
00:12:51,421 --> 00:12:52,941
I'm involved in drugs.

37
00:12:55,541 --> 00:12:56,861
First convicted.

38
00:12:56,941 --> 00:12:58,341
-Yeah, first convicted.
-Huh?

39
00:12:58,421 --> 00:12:59,861
First convicted.

40
00:12:59,941 --> 00:13:03,221
-You as well? First convicted?
- Yeah, she too.

41
00:13:04,941 --> 00:13:05,981
Two years.

42
00:13:09,621 --> 00:13:12,261
-My beshy.
-Oh, you two are partners.

43
00:13:12,341 --> 00:13:14,941
Just like me, confidently beautiful
with a heart.

44
00:17:07,021 --> 00:17:09,021
How are you?

45
00:17:18,541 --> 00:17:21,941
Before I was confined,
I was a law student.

46
00:20:43,541 --> 00:20:45,981
I have a symbol here, Bahala Na gang,

47
00:20:52,621 --> 00:20:55,621
I know a lot of people
in the Bahala Na gang.

48
00:20:56,461 --> 00:20:58,621
Many of them are my childhood friends.

49
00:21:10,181 --> 00:21:13,221
I knew him. He was my neighbor.

50
00:21:13,301 --> 00:21:18,181
So to get privileges in prison,
I joined the gang.

51
00:21:22,621 --> 00:21:24,341
If have visitors with…

52
00:21:24,421 --> 00:21:27,741
So food and money, I will give them.

53
00:21:46,181 --> 00:21:48,221
Take your belongings.

54
00:21:50,581 --> 00:21:53,181
Right hand, right shoulder.
Just follow.

55
00:22:07,221 --> 00:22:09,421
Sit down. Align yourself.

56
00:22:09,501 --> 00:22:10,541
Sit here.

57
00:22:12,181 --> 00:22:13,981
Dorm 8, Raphael Rowe.

58
00:22:14,781 --> 00:22:16,541
-Raphael Rowe?
-Yes.

59
00:22:16,621 --> 00:22:19,661
You'll go with Cordero. Cordero!

60
00:22:35,781 --> 00:22:37,501
-I don't think so.
-No?

61
00:22:37,581 --> 00:22:38,941
-I don't know.
-Okay.

62
00:22:40,061 --> 00:22:41,861
-Good luck, man.
-Good luck, man.

63
00:22:41,941 --> 00:22:43,941
Let's go. Let's go now.

64
00:23:10,901 --> 00:23:14,141
Comrade.
What is the only thing that we ask of you?

65
00:23:14,741 --> 00:23:17,701
Behave as a person
so that we will not have a problem.

66
00:23:17,781 --> 00:23:21,781
If you are carrying a heavy problem
with our comrades or with other groups,

67
00:23:21,861 --> 00:23:24,901
you inform me as mayores,

68
00:23:24,981 --> 00:23:27,901
and we will act on it.

69
00:23:27,981 --> 00:23:30,861
Do you understand, fellow inmates?

70
00:23:30,941 --> 00:23:33,301
Love, brotherhood,
that is all that matters now.

71
00:24:12,941 --> 00:24:16,581
Hey. Good evening. My name is Roger.

72
00:24:17,261 --> 00:24:20,981
Can you help me to help in the kitchen?

73
00:24:37,741 --> 00:24:39,701
Start counting per one people…

74
00:24:39,781 --> 00:24:41,141
- Right.
-…300 grams.

75
00:24:43,301 --> 00:24:44,421
At lunch…

76
00:24:45,461 --> 00:24:48,301
rice and one piece chicken.

77
00:24:51,381 --> 00:24:52,421
Can you…

78
00:25:31,021 --> 00:25:33,261
Seventy-five pesos, one person.

79
00:25:37,501 --> 00:25:38,461
Every day.

80
00:25:50,181 --> 00:25:51,581
-Over.
-300 grams.

81
00:25:54,141 --> 00:25:55,061
Good.

82
00:26:23,141 --> 00:26:25,061
We maintain discipline,

83
00:26:25,141 --> 00:26:26,861
because they obey our rules.

84
00:26:26,941 --> 00:26:30,501
Gang leaders, they must obey me.

85
00:26:30,581 --> 00:26:32,741
Rules and regulations in this dorm.

86
00:26:33,941 --> 00:26:35,461
We give them sanctions.

87
00:26:36,461 --> 00:26:39,981
We have, many sanctions,
to clean around,

88
00:26:40,061 --> 00:26:43,861
starting the morning
up to the evening.

89
00:26:43,941 --> 00:26:46,461
If they don't follow the rules,
they get sanctioned.

90
00:26:46,541 --> 00:26:48,301
If they did not obey…

91
00:26:49,341 --> 00:26:53,701
we can bring them to the office
of the BJMP.

92
00:26:54,901 --> 00:26:55,861
And…

93
00:26:57,341 --> 00:26:59,501
they take care of it. They will…

94
00:26:59,581 --> 00:27:02,661
They are the one
who will discipline that person.

95
00:27:13,981 --> 00:27:16,821
Maybe the past gang leaders.

96
00:27:17,661 --> 00:27:21,421
We help each other,
especially when there is hate

97
00:27:21,501 --> 00:27:25,741
or there is a problem about their family.

98
00:27:25,821 --> 00:27:30,421
We can also help financially.

99
00:27:30,501 --> 00:27:37,261
Even outside,
our fellow inmates or gangmates…

100
00:28:51,341 --> 00:28:54,221
Me. I'm the one
who decides where they stay.

101
00:28:58,261 --> 00:29:00,741
There's still a few spaces.

102
00:29:08,461 --> 00:29:12,741
I watch everyone and their stuff.

103
00:29:12,821 --> 00:29:18,021
I'm just checking that everyone is safe

104
00:29:18,101 --> 00:29:23,581
and everything is safe
in case there's an emergency.

105
00:29:29,421 --> 00:29:34,661
Sometimes, things go missing…

106
00:29:36,421 --> 00:29:40,061
or people run out of places to sleep.

107
00:31:21,261 --> 00:31:22,821
Eight months? Oh, nine months.

108
00:31:28,021 --> 00:31:30,061
I am… ten times.

109
00:31:32,261 --> 00:31:35,301
-Why?
-Because… First case, murder.

110
00:31:38,101 --> 00:31:40,501
And then second case, robbery holdup.

111
00:31:41,181 --> 00:31:45,141
And then third, fourth, drugs.

112
00:31:45,221 --> 00:31:48,061
Fifth, robbery, robber snatching.

113
00:31:48,141 --> 00:31:50,421
It's all about drugs, all drugs.

114
00:31:52,541 --> 00:31:53,821
Two gangster.

115
00:31:55,021 --> 00:31:58,221
Enemy gangster, yeah.
In a drive-by and then I killed him.

116
00:32:07,861 --> 00:32:09,941
This is the mayores' room.

117
00:32:12,701 --> 00:32:17,381
He's our father in charge
of the Bahala Na Gang.

118
00:32:34,701 --> 00:32:39,541
We chose him because he was a good friend.
He never gave up on us.

119
00:32:39,621 --> 00:32:42,501
He is our choice.
We put him there. We voted for him.

120
00:32:53,701 --> 00:32:57,301
This is what we call kubol.
These cells are just for ten people.

121
00:32:59,981 --> 00:33:04,341
These are just given to us
by the gang boss in charge.

122
00:33:17,301 --> 00:33:21,741
Those who don't know how to read and write

123
00:33:21,821 --> 00:33:28,661
attend courses taught by prisoners here.

124
00:33:39,021 --> 00:33:42,381
-Famous rapper in the jail.
-Okay.

125
00:33:42,461 --> 00:33:45,421
Many say that jail is hell

126
00:33:45,501 --> 00:33:47,421
Prisoners are humans
Who act like demons

127
00:33:47,501 --> 00:33:49,061
It is painful, it's hard to accept

128
00:33:49,141 --> 00:33:51,381
There are so many here
In the place to be

129
00:33:51,461 --> 00:33:56,541
I think quickly I will become
Like a nightmare in your dream

130
00:34:01,061 --> 00:34:03,581
I learned
how to read and write

131
00:34:03,661 --> 00:34:07,741
with the help of my fellow prisoners.

132
00:34:11,421 --> 00:34:14,101
I go back and forth here,
but now it's been a month.

133
00:34:16,661 --> 00:34:20,221
Being free from here is a vacation.
Jail is our real home.

134
00:34:31,381 --> 00:34:32,661
Nobody helps us.

135
00:34:32,741 --> 00:34:35,341
My family doesn't have money.
My wife doesn't have money.

136
00:34:39,421 --> 00:34:42,301
Yes, I have a business lending money.

137
00:34:44,981 --> 00:34:49,301
It can be frustrating
because sometimes people cannot pay.

138
00:34:53,061 --> 00:34:57,101
We can't do anything about it.
If you hurt them, you will have a problem.

139
00:35:05,701 --> 00:35:06,781
I can't promise you.

140
00:36:37,421 --> 00:36:39,781
-So, you're from the BCJ?
-Yes, sir.

141
00:36:48,141 --> 00:36:49,741
The fight happened here.

142
00:36:52,301 --> 00:36:55,661
Sometimes, it gets intense,
but we fix it right away.

143
00:36:58,061 --> 00:36:59,901
We communicate.

144
00:36:59,981 --> 00:37:01,461
We get ahead of it.

145
00:37:01,541 --> 00:37:04,581
We talk it out and immediately
try to resolve it.

146
00:37:23,661 --> 00:37:28,341
What I saw
was really like war.

147
00:37:28,421 --> 00:37:30,101
I couldn't stop my comrades.

148
00:37:35,981 --> 00:37:37,461
No, sir, not anymore.

149
00:37:37,541 --> 00:37:41,021
When it happened, we took care of
the needs of those the dead left behind,

150
00:37:41,101 --> 00:37:43,621
the funeral and the expenses
during their wake.

151
00:37:43,701 --> 00:37:46,341
The groups are set aside now.

152
00:37:46,421 --> 00:37:48,581
We are brothers.
That event became a lesson.

153
00:37:48,661 --> 00:37:50,781
Even a small problem,
we talk about it.

154
00:37:50,861 --> 00:37:52,661
A misunderstanding, we fix it.

155
00:37:52,741 --> 00:37:55,501
They are responsible
to fix their comrades' problems.

156
00:37:55,581 --> 00:37:56,741
It's the same with us.

157
00:38:37,061 --> 00:38:38,861
Give him the ball. Okay.

158
00:39:12,341 --> 00:39:13,861
Are you enjoying?

159
00:39:13,941 --> 00:39:16,261
-Yeah!
-Are you happy?

160
00:39:39,581 --> 00:39:42,101
Long live the Filipino community!

161
00:39:43,421 --> 00:39:46,861
It helps us to forget
our problems in prison.

162
00:39:46,941 --> 00:39:52,381
The Zumba keeps us inspired and stops us
from worrying about our families,

163
00:39:52,461 --> 00:39:54,421
from thinking about our loved ones.

164
00:42:13,261 --> 00:42:15,941
It happens often,

165
00:42:17,021 --> 00:42:24,021
usually two to three times a month.
The warden told us, the mayores,

166
00:42:24,101 --> 00:42:25,901
we need to clean up the dormitories.

167
00:42:25,981 --> 00:42:28,021
All mayores are given the responsibility

168
00:42:28,101 --> 00:42:31,541
to clean the City Jail,
to make it drug free.

169
00:42:35,541 --> 00:42:40,141
I am a little nervous,
because they might find something.

170
00:42:42,301 --> 00:42:46,581
I will be the one at risk.
As their mayores,

171
00:42:46,661 --> 00:42:49,501
it is my responsibility.
No one should disobey me.

172
00:42:49,581 --> 00:42:52,861
If there is someone
who doesn't do what I say,

173
00:42:52,941 --> 00:42:54,861
I surrender them to the prison guards.

174
00:44:40,101 --> 00:44:42,101
-How are you doing?
-Fine, thanks.

175
00:44:45,941 --> 00:44:48,261
This is what we call
the livelihood program.

176
00:44:48,341 --> 00:44:50,701
They will do massage therapy.

177
00:44:50,781 --> 00:44:53,461
Then when they're released from this jail,

178
00:44:54,101 --> 00:44:56,141
they will have an extra income.

179
00:44:56,221 --> 00:45:00,061
And to become also law-abiding
and productive citizens.

180
00:45:00,621 --> 00:45:02,781
First, sir, sit there.

181
00:45:02,861 --> 00:45:05,061
-Okay.
-And remove your shirt.

182
00:45:10,981 --> 00:45:12,301
Cold pressure.

183
00:45:15,141 --> 00:45:17,341
-How long have you been doing it?
-Five days.

184
00:45:24,661 --> 00:45:25,621
Drugs, sir.

185
00:45:35,141 --> 00:45:36,781
Because of the quota.

186
00:45:50,461 --> 00:45:54,181
We were stopped by the police, sir.
We were just riding our motorcycle.

187
00:45:57,381 --> 00:46:00,181
They didn't get anything from us.
They just planted it.

188
00:46:01,661 --> 00:46:06,621
When I was arrested, they said,
"Just confess,

189
00:46:06,701 --> 00:46:09,501
and you will only get
a six month sentence."

190
00:46:14,261 --> 00:46:16,621
Yes, sir. A lot of us
have a case like this.

191
00:46:17,501 --> 00:46:21,781
Sir, even if we get angry,
we're stuck here.

192
00:46:21,861 --> 00:46:23,381
We just accept it.

193
00:46:26,381 --> 00:46:27,621
Yes.

194
00:46:27,701 --> 00:46:30,461
If I go to another country,
I can use this.

195
00:46:32,101 --> 00:46:33,941
All right, powder, sir.
