Riot in a Women's Prison

1974 · 87 min

A grim, suffocating descent into cruelty and humiliation that leaves you drained and uneasy long after it ends.

Tagline: Caged women both ravaged and depraved.
Overview: This film traces the prison life of a group of women who-rather than being prepared to reenter society-are brought to the limits of depravity. Martine, wrongly imprisoned will bear the scars of a prison system wrongly based on punishment rather than rehabilitation.
How it feels: Bleak, dark, tense and melancholic. Slow-burning and needs your attention.
About: Isolation, power, violence, justice
Content: Strong violence and sexual content. Mild gore and language.
Note: Written by AI, so it can be wrong. Full breakdown
