Grief Without Goodbyes tells the story of two incarcerated men, Scot and Michael, as they navigate the profound pain of losing family while behind bars. Scot mourns his mother’s passing and faces the near loss of his father, while Michael grapples with the death of his own father—both denied the chance to say goodbye. Their experiences underscore the emotional toll of family loss on incarcerated people and the harsh reality of Truth in Sentencing laws, which ensure neither will have the opportunity for early release, no matter their rehabilitation.
