The title pretty much sums up, the real life tale of prisoners pushing back, at a less than uninviting prison system, with some real nasties. We see and understand, how the cons finally erupt, by way of a torching of their much loved jail. This is one of those finer Aussie dramas, written by a real life crim, actual eyes, there when the whole Bathurst insanity went down. The actors who breathe such life into their characters are wonderful, heralded of course by it's strong lead. A wonderful, entertaining 100 minutes, in a well realized and structured story, with great discipline to detail.
