Based on remarkable true events, the captivating new thriller from acclaimed writer/director Alberto Rodríguez (Marshland) follows a young accountant who, imprisoned in late 70s Spain on trumped-up charges, creates a systemic revolution from within. Modelo Prison, Barcelona. Twenty-something Manuel (fast-rising star Miguel Herrán, Money Heist, Elite) has been imprisoned on a fraud charge and may not even face trial for four years. Stubbornly refusing to be intimidated by the brutal beahviour of the prison guards, and aided by his seen-it-all cellmate Pino (Javier Gutiérrez), Manuel joins COPEL, a pro-amnesty collective fighting for the rights of prisoners. A war for freedom breaks out that will bring the Spanish prison system to its knees. If things are changing outside, they’ll have to do the same inside...
