ANNOTATION: Access to information about this film is available at this website. Points of entry include: the story and the children; mothers in prison; the film; resources and talkback. "When the Bough Breaks explores the emotional impact on children whose mothers are imprisoned for non-violent crimes, particularly drug-related prostitution and theft. The children's day-to-day lives give a clear, up-close picture of how the American justice system perpetuates the very problems it seeks to prevent."
