A prison in the process of being divested. Only a few guards and inmates are still there and they all are waiting to be transferred. A bit at a time, the rules begin to appear increasingly pointless and that of the men left behind turns into a new fragile community.

Jeannette Catsoulis New York Times “The Inner Cage” isn’t exactly a feast for the senses. Even so, if you’re in the mood to listen, the film’s careful conversations occasionally serve up food for thought. Dec 21, 2023 Full Review Stephen Romei The Australian This one tells a grimly familiar story in an interestingly different way. Rated: 3.5/5 Sep 16, 2022 Full Review Jordan Mintzer Hollywood Reporter Earnest, compassionate filmmaking that tries to cut past clichés and show how even the worst criminals have a heart... Sep 7, 2021 Full Review Dennis Harvey 48 Hills Not a prison uprising or escape thriller. Instead, it thoughtfully wends its way towards making a poignant statement about how under these extraordinary circumstances, the two “sides” relax some of their roles’ innate hostility. Jan 2, 2024 Full Review Josh Bell Crooked Marquee The movie's revelations are minor, but it's engrossing in its quiet simplicity. Rated: B Dec 20, 2023 Full Review Raquel Loredo Caimán Cuadernos de Cine An intention to show both inmates and officials in the same situation of meaningless confinement.
