DramaCrime

This fact‑based drama follows a group of inmates at the innovative 2,600‑acre Chino prison in California, where reform is pursued without armed guards, traditional lockups, or uniforms. The philosophy holds that removing these controls reduces the desire to flee, prompting prisoners to accept their sentences. A newly arrived inmate gradually embraces this approach, and the film features the Oscar‑nominated song “Unchained Melody.”
