Opis filmu

Opis oryginalny: niemiecki

Condemned for manslaughter under the influence of alcohol, but otherwise innocent, Kent is put in an overcrowded prison where the inmates are incapable of being properly dealt with. There he meets old "jailologists" like Morgan and his hard-nosed friend Butch. The system, however, punishes everyone equally, pits them against each other and thus only achieves the worst: the prisoners attempt to escape for a long time, which cannot go off without fatalities.
