AND SO I STAYED is an award-winning documentary about survivors of abuse fighting for their lives and spending years behind bars.

Nikki Addimando, a mother of two young children, suffered the consequences when a judge didn’t follow the law’s guidelines. Tanisha Davis, a single mother who was ripped away from her son in 2013, is hopeful the new law is her way out of a harsh prison sentence.
