1h 46m - US
Two men are framed and sent to jail, where they meet a murderer who helps them escape and leave the state.The film centers on the arrest, incarceration, and escape from jail of a disc jockey, a pimp and an italian tourist. It discards jailbreak film conventions by focusing on the interaction between the convicts rather than on the mechanics of the escape. Robby Müller's slow-moving camerawork beautifully captures the architecture of New Orleans and the Louisiana bayou to which the cellmates escape.
