The Enola Vale Correctional Facility is a juvenile detention centre for teenage boys that the system doesn't know what else to do with. The long-term inmates have built a rigid power structure based on fear and the guards use the prisoners to let out their own frustrations. Butch, Davis and Angel are new arrivals. they have never met before but they all swiftly realise that the odds are stacked against them and that their only hope for getting through their sentences is if they have each others' backs. But friendship will only get them so far when their endurance is stretched to the limit... Kim Chapiron (Sheitan) directs a visceral and action-packed prison drama that takes a long hard look at the juvenile justice system.

Well apparently this is a remake of the British film "Scum" & oh deary me it's nowhere near a patch on the original. What's up America? You can imitate just fine & that's where the similarities end. This has none of the brutality & realism of the original. I neither felt one way or the other about the characters or cared what happened to them. Scum affected me deeply when I first saw it & I'll never forget it to this day, I'm still upset about it all these years later. Far more realistic than this throw away garbage. Watch Offender instead.

class film, keeps you locked to the screen - highly recommended

Good film
