A group of strong men, sporting tatoos, jump around on a stage. They play copycat, dance arm in arm, dress up, and occasionally, laugh uncontrollably. The stage in question is inside the Quatre Camins Prison in Barcelona. Over the course of a year we get to know Giorgio, Raúl, Jony, Kiko and Pablo in astonishingly intimate and even tender detail, through their activities on and off stage, as their stories unfold inside the bubble of the theatre group that holds together, at times tenuously, at times with surprising resistance, within the prison wall.
