Set in a French prison in some remote part of the Middle East, this poetic and intensely physical vision of homosexual desire is the latest film directed by Jean-marc Prouveur. Using a carefully chosen cast it alternates between tortured repressed fantasies and imagined green woodland from home. In the Prisoner's Song, soldiers sweat their days in solitary cells of a military jail and dream of sex with each other in the grass and flowers of their home fields. When lust and boredom overcome them they rub themselves against the stony walls listening for a murmur from the adjacent cell. Stuck in airless rooms, sexy inmates drive themselves to the edge with obsessive and pornographic longing.

Timeworn Joe Collins and his fellow inmates live under the heavy thumb of the sadistic, power-tripping guard Captain Munsey. Only Collins' dreams of escape keep him going, but how can he possibly bust out of Munsey's chains?
