Behind Bars: Litla-Hraun, Iceland | World’s Toughest Prisons | Free Documentary Behind Bars - CPDRC, Philippines: https://youtu.be/uyAIgfbCJb8 Iceland is known as one of the safest countries in the world, famous for its waterfalls and geysers. Yet in recent years, drug use and violent crime have been rising—especially in Reykjavik. Drug seizures have nearly doubled, and those caught are sent to Litla Hraun, Iceland’s oldest and highest-security prison. Around eighty inmates are held behind thick steel doors under constant surveillance. One of them is Marco, a 43-year-old from Croatia, arrested with seven kilograms of cocaine and facing up to twelve years in prison. Working in the prison’s metal workshop offers a brief escape from the reality that his family is thousands of kilometers away. Others, like 23-year-old Ingo, serving an 18-year sentence for violent crimes, spend their days confined to their cells. Litla Hraun is guarded by unarmed officers like Harpa, who has protected Iceland’s most dangerous criminals for sixteen years. Every morning, cell doors are unlocked under strict safety protocols, and every movement inside the prison is monitored. When guards discover drugs inside the facility, a late-night cell search uncovers something no one expected. #FreeDocumentary #Documentary #BehindBars ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe to Free Documentary Channel for free: https://bit.ly/2YJ4XzQ ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Free Documentary is dedicated to bringing high-quality documentaries to you on YouTube for free with the latest camera equipment used by well-known filmmakers working for famous production studios.
