Visiting Hours Two women cross paths in the waiting room of a prison where each has come to visit “her man.” One is wealthy; the other works hard to feed her two children. The former, who lives much closer to the prison, offers the latter a room in her large house. Is this a friendship, a romance, a pact? The film follows the unlikely pair, their dreams of female emancipation, and the repercussions of the gulf between them. See More
