Synopsis:
The
story of Driver, a career criminal who is picked up by the Mexican
police as he desperately tries to cross the border in a car stuffed
full of stolen cash. The police take the cash and dump him in
the infamous El Pueblito prison - a hell on earth where the prison
gangs run the show. Driver has no ID or fingerprints but he still
gets a visit from a corrupt American Embassy official who has
heard about the money. If Driver doesn't find a way of paying
him off while he's inside, then he's going to let the authorities
know where Driver is. And it won't be long before the guys he
stole the money from find him too. Driver knows it is sink or
swim. He hooks up with a young boy who shows him how to survive
in the prison, but the kid has a terrible secret. He shares a
rare blood type with Javi - the criminal who ruthlessly controls
the prison and everyone in it. The kid is Javi's life insurance
policy and he has doctors on standby to transplant his liver whenever
the time comes. But Driver has other ideas and pretty soon he
devises an audacious plan to escape with the kid, the kid’s
mother and the money. |
