Susan Walker is a single mother raising two children. In the midst of planning a future with her perfect boyfriend, Russell, she discovers he's a drug dealer and breaks up with him. Soon, her house is raided by drug enforcement officials who charge her as a co-conspirator in Russell's drug ring. Susan is innocent and confidant that the jury will acquit her. But, under a new mandatory-minimum drug-sentencing law, she is sentenced to 20 years in jail. Her resolve to fight this injustice never wavers, even when the system has abandoned her. After years in prison, Susan learns that the government has reduced the sentences of women like her and finds there may be a ray of hope after all. (official distributor synopsis)
