Cell 211 (Dir: Daniel Monzon, France, 2009)
Spain's Daniel Monzón adapts Francisco Pérez Gandul's hard-hitting prison novel with aplomb in Cell 211. Centred on a fierce prison riot, the plot follows two men caught on opposite sides of the allegorical fence - one an oppressed inmate who’s taking extreme measures to derail his incarceration; the other a young guard who disguises himself as a prisoner to avoid being made into a pawn for ransom.
With an English-language remake already in the pipeline, Cell 211 is poised to be one of the big world cinema hits this year. Adm: €5
