In a corrupt women's prison, closely monitored by the inmates, a mafia thrives among the most dangerous prisoners, deceitful guards, and drug traffickers. They collaborate to smuggle drugs into the prison. Silvia (Leonor Benedetto) staunchly refuses to cooperate with Susana (Camila Perissé) when she attempts to involve her in drug trafficking. Consequently, Silvia is punished, and tragically, her younger sister is murdered. Determined, Silvia orchestrates her escape from the prison one night, with the aid of fellow inmates and trustworthy guards. Once free, she embarks on a quest for revenge against the drug traffickers.
