Within These Walls is a subtle exploration of redemption and compassion, focusing on the unique bond between female inmates and the service dogs they train. The pacing is a bit slow, but it allows for a deeper dive into the characters’ stories, each one layered with their own struggles and hopes. Laura Dern brings a quiet strength to her role as the nun, guiding the program with a firm yet nurturing hand. The atmosphere is heavy yet hopeful, as we see tough exteriors soften through the act of caring for these animals. It’s not flashy, and the practical effects are minimal, but the emotional grounding is where the film truly shines, showcasing the transformative power of purpose.
