Vito Mancini has spent the past forty years in prison. His control over guards and prisoners unquestioned...until now. A vicious gang leader (SURF) will challenge Vito's control. Blood will spill, sides will be taken, friendships and loyalties tested. There is no neutral ground...every man must choose a side and prepare for battle. Though Surf has the numbers on his side, Vito has the veteran convicts who are hardened by years of prison violence. In his haste for control, Surf orders the execution of a problematic guard. Unable to prove Surf's involvement, the Warden takes matters into his own hands. He is aware of the power-struggle between Surf and Vito. The Warden orders the release of Vito's childhood friend from years of isolation. A human killing machine dedicated to Vito and the most feared man in the prison.
