It’s 1994. South Africa is on the brink of freedom. On the verge of
a big break in modelling, Miss SA finalist, 21-year-old Vanessa
Goosen is caught up in every traveller’s nightmare. Duped into
carrying books with 1.7 kilograms of heroin hidden in them, Goosen
is arrested and tried on drug trafficking charges. Deaf to her
pleas of innocence, the Thai courts sentence Goosen to death. On
appeal her sentence is commuted to life, to be served in Bangkok’s
notorious Lard Yao prison. Pregnant, terrified and desperately
alone, Goosen begins a harrowing 16-year journey behind bars.
Forced to part with her beloved daughter three years later,
Goosen’s story traces the joy and hurt of motherhood behind bars,
the depression that comes with long-term incarceration and
separation, and her return to a hugely changed South Africa in
2010.
