Eva is an idealistic prison guard whose life is turned upside down when a young man from her past gets transferred to the prison where she works. Without revealing her secret, Eva asks to be moved to the young man’s ward – the toughest and most violent in the prison – and begins a series of events that will shake all her principles to the core.
Director Gustav Moller (The Guilty, 2018) creates an unsettling psychological thriller set among the prison cells, with spectacular performances by Sidsa Babett Knudsen (Borgen series) and Sebastian Bull (The Hunt, 2020). The film premiered at the Berlin Film Festival as part of the Competition programme.
