The true story of British drug addict Billy Moore (Joe Cole), who found himself in a brutal Thai prison. Initially treated warily by his fellow inmates, he wins their respect — and maybe a chance of freedom — by becoming a kickboxer, and in the process learns there are alternatives to self-destruction.
