Joan Thomas (Ellen Burstyn from REQUIEM FOR A DREAM) stars as Joan Thomas, a hardened criminal serving hard time in a women`s prison. Into her life walks Sister Pauline (Laura Dern, BLUE VELVET, CITIZEN RUTH) who is looking to start a program where the prisoners will train dogs for use by handicapped people. This Hallmark made-for-television film shows how these two different people, both with very different but difficult pasts, manage to see their way through difficult situations.
