The dramatic situation of the film is well set. A prison guard who is about to be recruited is accidentally stranded in cell 211 and immediately involved in a prisoner riot. He cleverly deceived the first big torture as a new prisoner and became the partner of the prisoner's leader, the evil woman. Then the story enters the stage of a lone hero or an undercover hero. Whether he can escape or even not be exposed to save his life becomes a suspense. The film also intensifies contradictions around this point, including the intensification of the police and bandits, the deterioration of the protagonist's environment and the choice, internal suspicion and investigation, and the possible exposure of his mistakes. In the end, the aggravating factor was locked on his pregnant wife. The wife mixed with the prisoners' family members and came to the prison to learn about the situation. She was beaten to death by one of the violent prison guards, which made the conflict irreconcilable. The true identity has set a reasonable situation in which the protagonist's old hatred and new danger should be killed by the police. As a result, the story took a major turn. The protagonist took the initiative to stand on the side of the prisoners and demanded that the government publicly promise to abolish the unreasonable monitoring system, which eventually led to his betrayal by the police and his death. The theme of the film has changed to expose and criticize the judicial system.
Reasonable setting of the film situation requires special factors. For example, the Spanish government is worried about the retaliation of the ETA terrorist organization and needs to protect the life of the prisoners of the organization. Therefore, these people become the hostages of the prisoners. The other two points are avoidable human errors. For example, after Juan fell into the cell, he should immediately arrange for someone to notify, transfer and protect his family. The TV in the cell and all other external information contacts should be cut off as soon as possible. But in the film, live TV information becomes an important medium for the conflict.
