Rating: Parental Guidance - 13yo | Some Coarse Language 

Melissa, 32, an experienced prison guard, moves to Corsica with her two young children and her husband. The opportunity for a fresh start. She joins the staff of a prison that's not quite like any other. Here, it is said that it is the prisoners who watch over the guards. Melissa's integration is facilitated by Saveriu, an influential young inmate who places her under his protection. But once released, Saveriu gets back in touch with Melissa. He has a favor to ask of her... A pernicious mechanism has started. 

A perfect blend of prison film, detective movie, portrait of a woman and deep dive into Corsican society, Stéphane Demoustier delivers an excellent feature film carried by the brilliant and rising actress Hafsia Herzi. Dive into this isolated world portrayed with authenticity where unspoken tensions can only announce a painful decision to take. Based on true events.
