Ron| who's young| slight| and privileged| is sentenced to prison on marijuana charges. For whatever reason| he brings out paternal feelings in an 18-year prison
veteran| Earl Copan| who takes Ron under his wing. The film explores the nature of that relationship| Ron's part in Earl's gang| and the way Ron deals with
aggressive cons intent on assault and rape. There's casual racism| too| in the prisoners and the guards| a strike called by Black prisoners| and the nearly
omnipresence of hard drugs. Ron's lawyer is working on getting Ron out quickly| Earl has a shot at parole| and death seems to be waiting in the next cell. Will
prison turn Ron into an animal?
