I saw this film on USA's Up All Night and it was like finding a priceless gem. It is a great film that everyone should see because it tells about the importance of freedom and how quickly it can be taken away from us. In the wake of 9/11 I think that is the most important message of all. A fine young actress named Melanie Coll stars as a policewoman who is framed and thrown into a hellhole prison and must fight to survive. She gives a really gutsy performance as the courageous young officer.
