Visite de la prison de Clairvaux

A Visit to Clairvaux Central Prison. This documentary offers a comprehensive look at this prison before its final closure in May 2023. This project is part of a larger initiative on preserving the memory of prison heritage, launched by the Criminocorpus team in partnership with the prison administration. Through the testimonies of those who worked there daily—Clairvaux Central Prison staff (directors, guards, teachers, etc.) and historians—it reveals, from a rarely seen perspective, the workings of this unique prison and its transformations since 1805.
