Lyon, abril de 1943. En la Francia ocupada durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, el teniente Fontaine, de 27 años de edad, es detenido por el ejército alemán y llevado a la sede de la Gestapo para ser interrogado. De camino a la fortaleza de Montluc, donde debe ser confinado, salta del coche de policía pero pronto vuelve a ser capturado y es condenado a muerte. Tras haber perdido el conocimiento, comprueba que está encerrado en una celda de espacio reducido. Un día, mediante el uso de un alfiler, busca la forma de desbloquear sus manos esposadas. Poco a poco, una idea se irá convirtiendo en obsesión: escapar. (A Contracorriente Films)

Prison Break French style, and incredibly realistic. The intimate narrative may be as cold as a penguin’s butt, and the supporting characters seem like mere necessary backdrops in their behaviour and speech, but as a depiction of real, depressing events I believed it. Sometimes there is strength in simplicity, and this classic film, although not among the most typical representatives of this saying, is an example of it. 70% ()
Extremely interesting film, which is very calm in its execution, even though it is about an inmate escaping. With its poetic style, it is a film noir without action, very slow-paced. However, it doesn't matter at all because the way we observe everything through the eyes of the one who wants to escape creates sufficient tension, but also strong and emotional situations. Even without music. It is possible when one wants to, you just have to understand the film and its possibilities a little bit. ()
