Article 27 of the Italian Constitution states that the sentence of imprisonment has the function of supporting detainees in a process of re-education and rehabilitation that should enable them, after serving their sentence, to reintegrate socially and professionally in society. However a convict’s arduous path from condemnation to liberation is still conditioned by a vision of prison as a confined space simply used as punishment. Ombre della Sera recounts the difficult process of social reintegration, and it is the very inmates and ex-inmates of the prison of Rebibbia in Rome who re-inact their return home after so many years of separation.
