This movie is about people imprisoned during an era of extreme censorship and repression. (If they spoke out against Franco in anyway, they would be imprisoned.) Only, the regime went down and everyone is still locked up. They wanted to get amnesty for their crimes and fought for that. They also wanted to get treated better. The main character lands in prison and is mistreated from the get go. He complains about the mistreatment and garners attention from the other inmates. Many of them can't read and enlist him to join the amnesty cause. He becomes the unofficial leader and faces a bunch obstacles in-between. It's a very interesting watch. The kind of movie that just keeps your eyes glued to the screen. Never a dull moment in this one. The passionate acting from all parties, makes this a must watch. Everyone played their roles perfectly.
