Synopsis

A relentless, high-stakes action thriller, set entirely within a single prison cell. On the eve of his release, violent criminal Joe receives a call that shatters his world: his ex-wife and son have been kidnapped, and unless he follows the caller’s demands, they will die. Armed only with a mobile phone, Joe must race against time to save his family and himself. Ruthless prison officers only add to Joe’s woes in a razor-sharp, gripping descent into suspenseful chaos with intense emotional stakes where every second counts and freedom comes at a deadly price.

How many hands made this film

The scale of the collaboration

Principal cast & crew: 19

These are the principals we have on file — the full crew ran to the hundreds. Every film this size was made by far more hands than any credits list ever names.

Why a floor?

This is a minimum, not a total. We only count the credits we’ve captured so far, and coverage is uneven — a blockbuster might show a few hundred names while another of the same size shows a couple dozen. The real crews all ran into the thousands. The number here only grows as full credits are enriched — so we frame it as a floor, never a headcount.
