Synopsis:

Feltham Sings shows a group of young offenders in a new light, as the prisoners of Feltham tell their dreams and their pain in song. The experiences they sing about are dark and intense, but the fresh approach of poet Simon Armitage and director Brian Hill, played with the music of Dextrous allows us to see them as much more than car-thieves, thugs and burglars.
