Plot

The autobiography written by Gabrielle Carey tells her story of how she made the 'mistake' of falling in love with Terry Haley, a prison inmate at Parramatta Gaol.

The character's names were changed for the movie, in which, Jessica Taylor (McClements), a young journalist, is sent to a maximum security prison to watch a debate and gather up information for a story she is writing. It is there that she meets long-term prisoner Billy Carter (Burgess), and after a while, the pair fall in love and want to get married.
