30 dagar i fängelse

After 11 days, it becomes clear that there are factions and hierarchies inside the prison. The double occupancy - i.e. that the inmates live two people in the cells - increases the risk of conflicts. Things that are small and insignificant on the outside can lead to serious fights and violence on the inside and a food fight creates a really threatening situation in the ward. 

What happens to people after time in prison? And do you get rehabilitated? Christoffer meets more and more people who are unwell and the nurse Cecilia is used to helping people with mental illness and sleep problems. For Andy, prison is the chance he's been longing for to get away from his criminal existence, and Krantz is on his last day in a treatment program that will help him change his life. But what will happen to homeless David when he is released?

How do you deal with longing for your family and children when you are in prison? Krantz gets a visit, Jimmy calls his son, and Christoffer gets a letter that makes him want to call it quits and go home. Why do people end up in gang crime and how does the increased gang violence affect prison? "Tobias" talks about cohesion, the longing for money and how it feels to have children he cannot meet.

After 30 days, Christoffer steps out of the institution and the relief is enormous. After a while he seeks out some of those he met inside. How does Tobias live now with a death threat? How has it gone for David and did he get help with housing? Wayne is released from prison and travels to see his daughter. And how is Krantz doing at the treatment center?
