Prison 77 Movie Storyline:

Taking place from 1976 to 1978, during the so-called Transition, the plot is inspired by the real attempted prison break from Barcelona’s Cárcel Modelo attempted by 45 inmates in 1978, after a rebellion led by the Coordinadora de presos en lucha (COPEL). The fiction follows two of the prisoners, José Pino and Manuel, an aged inmate who has passed through several prisons and a young accounting assistant who has just entered the prison, respectively.
