I've just watched this excellent film on TV. I'd taken a fast glimpse at the argument and it seemed it could be interesting, so when to my delight I found it was starred by the Scandinavian Goddess Connie Nielsen I felt compelled to remain glued to the screen for its entire length. Not only she's one of the most beautiful women on Earth, but she has also taken part on astonishing films like The Devil's Advocate (that antireligion speech by Al Pacino just at the end is one of the most memorable moments in the history of cinema/art), Demon Lover (an original plot with a great aesthetic) , Brothers...
As for this film itself, we'll see how an odd relationship develops between 2 lost, tortured souls (yes, I love films about fucked up people). On one side, one woman in the death corridor seeks for redemption through punishment and death after having killed a baby. On the other side, an ex-lawyer makes a living from befriending death sentenced people and reselling their letters to the papers... Well, put this way, both characters appear like real pieces of shit, but coming into contact will be a really life changing experience for both (and a really entertaining one for the viewer).
