Are there any documentaries on what government mental hospitals are like for defendants found Not Criminally Responsible/Insane/Not guilty on account of medical status?
I always wonder what these places look like in terms of everyday life for its patients/prisoners that were found to be Insane or Not Criminally Responsible (NCR)?
Since many times there is an indetermanite sentence, for some who never get better it could very well be a life sentence; its also often colloquially refered to as Worse Than Prison (WTP) or, at very least, No Cake Walk (NCW)

While it's might not be what you might be looking for,but I used to work in a forensic psychiatry (including high security ward) in a central European country.

What are their actual living spaces like? What does their "room" look like; what activities/amenities do they have?
