The everyday life of the people who live there consists of interrogations, psychological and physical violence, arbitrary punishments, and other torments. One of the prisoners who refuses to yield is subjected to torture and falls into the sea while attempting to escape. Such an incident is unacceptable for the prison administration, especially at a time when the Queen is to visit the island.
