About

Songs Inside is a feature documentary by local filmmaker Shalom Almond that chronicles the transformative journey of a group of women from the Adelaide Women’s Prison who, over six months, discover the healing power of music. The creative process unearths profound struggles with trauma and addiction, demonstrating that even within the complexities of prison life, music can serve as a universal force for healing and hope. Led by Barkindji singer-songwriter Nancy Bates, their journey culminates in a historic performance—the largest concert ever staged within an Australian prison—featuring the Adelaide Symphony Orchestra and an audience of over 200 inmates and guests.

After winning the Adelaide Film Festival Audience Award for Best Documentary, this special event includes a Q&A with the filmmakers and Songsbirds + a drink on arrival.

All ticket proceeds will go toward our social impact campaign to challenge societal attitudes about incarcerated women and advocate for systemic change.
