They are women. They are mothers. They are prisoners serving long sentences in a correctional facility in Chile. Their children grow up far from them, but remain in their hearts. In prison, they find affection in other partners who share their situation. Mutual support among these women becomes a form of resistance and empowerment. Malqueridas constructs their stories through images captured by them with banned cell phones inside the prison, recovering the collective memory of an abandoned community.

Ryan Coleman In Review Online Gilbert Fernández has crafted a stirring work of art and a vital political document. Malqueridas is a piece of living testimony that raises the bar for documentarians aiming to capture something essential about the prison system and prison life.
