It stars Benjamín Vicuña, Roberto Farías, Francisca Gavilán, Amparo Noguera, Víctor Montero, Diego Ruiz, Catalina Martín and Eusebio Arenas. It is inspired by the prison escape that occurred on January 30, 1990, known as Operation Success in the Public Jail of Santiago. The film was named on the shortlist for Chilean's entry for the Academy Award for Best International Feature Film at the 93rd Academy Awards, but it was not selected. Synopsis In the Santiago Public Prison, 24 prisoners dug a tunnel more than 80 meters long, hiding 55 tons of earth inside the prison, which took them more than a year to build, using only a screwdriver. Neither the common prisoners in the nearby cells, nor the gendarmes who monitored them daily discovered the plan that would lead 49 inmates to achieve freedom in one of the most surprising escapes in Chilean criminal history.
