Plot

Yolanda falls in love with Billy, a convict, whom she meets online. What motivates her, even after Billy commits a murder in prison and ends up on death row, to maintain a relationship with him when you can only love each other from afar?

When Dutch, introverted, and solitary Yolanda meets Billy, an American convict, through the website writeaprisoner, she falls madly in love. No man has ever been more open with her, wanting to know her, understand her, help her. But he is behind bars, and they can communicate only through the letters they send each other. From the outside, it is difficult to imagine how one could fall in love with someone serving a sentence for such a heinous crime. Yet the love between the two seems unconditional, even after Billy commits a murder in prison and ends up on death row. Every year hundreds of women marry their American pen pal in prison, about a dozen of them are European. Relationships like Yolanda and Billy's are full of roadblocks that would drive any modern day relationship to its end. No physical contact, never being able to be together, not being able to speak to each other privately, no spontaneity, no vacations together and no one around who could be genuinely happy for you. On top of it all, Billy's upcoming execution means that Yolanda will soon be on her own once again. Unconditional is a psychological quest for love: If so little seems to be gained from love, why pursue it?
