Spoiler shield

Inmates on the remote island of Gorgona, Europe's last agricultural penal colony. They farm the land, care for the animals, hoping for a second chance at life. Through a precise observation of the place and a select group of its people, the film invites viewers to reflect on the role of prison as punishment vs. rehabilitation.
