When an idealistic architect (Franco Nero) stands up for his beliefs when he thinks a large-scale project is endangering the local populace, he is falsely charged with crimes and thrown in jail. As he gets run through the brutal prison system while trying to find legal recourse, his moral stance is challenged by his fellow inmates, the prison guards, corrupt officials, and the oppressive environment from which he seemingly can find no escape. Soundtrack by Ennio Morricone. (Cinemax)
