Prison 77

"Prison 77", directed by Alberto Rodríguez, is set in Barcelona's Modelo Prison in 1977 and follows a young accountant, Manuel Gómez (Miguel Herrán), who joins a group of prisoners demanding amnesty. The film explores the plight of inmates imprisoned on common charges during Spain's Transition period, which never came to pass for those like them. Inspired by a real prison break attempt, the plot is marked by harsh reality and critical thinking, with a strong cast performance from Miguel Herrán and Javier Gutiérrez as José Pino.
