VOICED : El rock de la carcel

The Japanese pop duo Space 2 performs in a prison in northern Tokyo, aiming to touch the hearts of over 500 inmates. Known as 'prison idols,' their simple yet profound lyrics resonate deeply with their audience. The concerts offer prisoners a chance for reflection and potential life changes. With 60,000 prisoners in Japan, Space 2 believes reducing stigma is crucial for rehabilitation. They emphasize the challenges ex-prisoners face in reintegrating into society. Despite these challenges, Space 2 remains committed to their unique mission, even volunteering as parole supervisors, and have no plans to stop their prison performances.
