Violence in a Women's Prison (Italian: Violenza in un carcere femminile) is a women in prison film directed by Bruno Mattei. The film stars Laura Gemser and Gabriele Tinti. It tells the story of Emanuelle, who is sent to Santa Catarina Women's Penitentiary for drugs and prostitution, where she meets the warden and the other inmates. Her actual reason is undercover reporting for Amnesty International. It is the seventh film in the Emanuelle nera film series and the first one directed by Mattei.

Plot

Under a false identity, journalist Emanuelle (Laura Gemser) pretends to be a drug dealer to get herself sent to prison in order to investigate and document the brutality and abuses that inmates are subjected to. While there she is attacked, locked in solitary confinement, and injured. Emanuelle is helped by Dr. Moran (Gabriele Tinti) and some prisoners, and is able to report her findings, after which the perpetrators are arrested.
