Description
[Machine Translation] What is the unimaginable truth about a real-life "prison island" in Northern Europe? An extreme island survival and escape suspense about boys who yearn for freedom! On the island of Bast y, south of the Norwegian capital Oslo, there used to be a correctional facility for boys between the ages of 11 and 18. There, unreasonable punishments and assaults were rampant, and in 1915, a rebellion among the boys broke out, so big that 150 soldiers had to be mobilized to put down the rebellion. This shocking true-life suspense film sheds light on a dark part of history that even the majority of Norwegians did not know about.

A new masterpiece is born in the "isolated island" and "prison break" genre, which is full of masterpieces! Stellan Skarsgard, Sweden's most famous actor, plays the role of the Director. The film has won numerous awards both in Norway and abroad for the true-to-life performances of these young, unknown actors! -1915. In 1915, a juvenile delinquent named Eling is repatriated to the Norwegian island of Bast y. There, he witnesses the reality of a correctional facility that is so unreasonable that it separates him from the outside world. He is punished with hard labor that resembles bullying, and sexually abused by his educators. Ering's solitary resistance against the dominatrix who reigns as if he were the king, and against the ruthless matron, at every turn, stirs the hearts of the boys exposed to excessive oppression, such as Aurav, an honor student, and leads them to revolt, risking life and death...
