I recently viewed Netflix's newest season of "Inside the World's Toughest Prisons" (a pretty interesting docu-series, if you're into that sort of thing). The latest episode of that series (S5,E3) features the new Nuuk Maximum Security Correctional Facility, completed in 2020 and mentioned at the start of this thread. This self-branded "humane" facility looks amazing, as far as prison architecture goes. I found it interesting that the prison (Greenland's first) has to import some Denmark staff to help establish and maintain proper protocols. Some of the prisoners, at least those involved in the Netflix documentary, have associations with some of the prison staff, because it is such a small city. This sometimes makes for tricky dynamics, in terms of boundaries and discipline. The show makes it sound like they're still figuring everything out.

Anyway, if you have Netlfix, it's worth a look. If not, I found a partial clip of the episode on Youtube -
