Plots(1)
After a one-night stand with a beautiful young woman, Ben Coulter (Ben Whishaw) wakes up with a hangover... and blood on his hands. Lying beside him, fatally stabbed, is the naked body of the woman. So begins a nightmare that will change Ben's life forever, as damning evidence emerges to incriminate him in a murder that he has no recollection of committing.
Once in prison, awaiting the trial that will decide his fate, Ben must endure terrifying forms of justice from hardcore inmates and the question is: Can Ben survive life in jail long enough to last through a trial he has little hope of winning?
