Most of the people living in modern society want to be in the fashion, to surround itself with convenient and beautiful things, to adhere to everything that is called as "good life".
Most of the people living in modern society want to be in the fashion, to surround itself with convenient and beautiful things, to adhere to everything that is called as "good life". To correspond to that life which as "successful" is shown in commercials and glossy magazines. The feeling of the compliance to these standard images in society is a feeling of freedom for the people who are in prison. In prison, in the conditions of full restriction of movement, the rights and personal freedoms opportunity to put on a beautiful dress, to be engaged in creative or religious activity is an attempt to replace absence of external freedom due to own internal freedom. But all these attempts are in "limits of compliance" to the standards of behavior accepted in society. In Russia the prison is called "a place which isn't far", that is that absolutely near "free" life. And life in prison is a peculiar tiny copy of life on freedom.
