Piper Chapman (Taylor Schilling), a Connecticut woman with a stable life and a senior executive, is arrested following a drug offense he committed a decade ago: in those days took a briefcase with drug for Alex Vause (Laura Prepon), a smuggler and former lover of Piper. After the trial, was sent to prison for women in Litchfield, New York. Based on the real experiences of Kerman, whose experience behind bars helped him write the best-selling autobiography Orange Is the New Black: My Year in a Womens Prison. Halfway between drama and comedy, an acclaimed series was one of the best reviews scored in his first season in 2013- which addresses issues related to prison as the American prison system, lesbianism, sexual repression, abuse of power or police corruption.
