Chile 1970, just before the elections bringing Allende to power: Jaime, a narcissistic 20 year old, kills out of jealousy a guy known as The Gypsy, his till-then best friend. In prison he has a definitive encounter with "the Stallion", an older man who inspires respect and holds the power behind bars. Searching for protection, Jaime develops with the man a relationship of affection and tenderness, discovers love and the need to be recognized, and later, becoming "The Prince", finally rethink his sexual identity, and the reason for the crime that took him to prison. —Wiki

A bit glib in parts
As a shocking view of depravity and brutality in a Chilean prison before Allende's election, the film is convincing. The events of the film leading up to Jaime's transformation are somewhat less so.
Nonetheless, the film held the attention and even though it was based on a trash novel one got the feeling of wanting to know what would happen next.
The lovemaking scenes were not even vaguely erotic including the ones where there was some tenderness.
I was slightly disappointed, but knowing the source material, I guess I wasn't looking for or expecting more. I don't regret watching, by any means.
