A film by Daniel Monzon

During a tour of a prison, newly appointed warden Juan gets caught on the inside when a riot breaks out and prisoners seize control. His only means of survival is to pose as a new inmate and gain the trust of ferocious ringleader Malamadre. The two form an unwitting bond but as the situation becomes more critical, their options grow more limited. Each man takes on opposing sides of hope; one has everything to live for while the other faces life behind bars. Trapped between callous officials and bloodthirsty prisoners, Juan finds his former identity crumbling as the standoff moves toward an enthralling showdown.
