Description

When twenty-three-year-old Lucas enters a high-stakes, year-long social experiment, he expects a role as staff but is instead thrust into the harsh life of an inmate. Within the walls of a fully functional prison production, Lucas joins a diverse group of prisoners in Cell Block C, including the enigmatic and experienced Ray. After a daring attempt to memorize a hidden map of the facility leads to swift punishment and a stint in solitary confinement, Lucas realizes the game is far more dangerous than he imagined. Using his background in 'tactical observation' and escape-room logic, he must navigate shifting alliances and internal power dynamics. As the boundary between reality and performance blurs, Lucas relies on his wits and the secrets he’s uncovered to survive the psychological pressures of life behind bars.
