Plots(1)
Fresh from a traumatic tour of Iraq, Sam Norwood (James D'Arcy) finds himself forced to take a job as a Prison Officer in one of her Majesty's most brutal institutions. On the inside he learns the ropes from his colleagues, a bunch of hardened 'screws', but his life begins to spiral out of control as he drinks and takes drugs to help him deal with the stresses and strains of the job and his past. As he nears rock-bottom, he is unprepared to learn the hardest lesson of all: that the screws are often as corrupt as the criminals they keep. (Lionsgate Home Entertainment)
