- Summary:
- The date is September the 25th, 1983 -- the Troubles are ongoing. Thirty-eight members of the Provisional Irish Republican Army (IRA) are being held captive in HM Prison Maze, an impenetrable, escape-proof jail. The odds are against them. The Maze is fortified with 15-foot fences, 18-foot concrete walls, barbed wire and steel gates. Months of planning have lead up to this moment; the moment when these daring men, assisted by some guards, break free from the prison and resume the fight for Irish independence. If they escape, it'll be the largest European jailbreak since the War.
