🔐 Synopsis

Escape from Alcatraz (2025) reimagines the legendary 1979 classic through a modern, high-stakes lens. Set in the early 1960s, the film follows Frank Morris, a brilliant but hardened inmate sent to the infamous island prison known for its brutal isolation and inescapable reputation.

When Morris discovers cracks in the prison’s security, he joins forces with fellow inmates — the Anglin brothers — to pull off the impossible. As they dig, sculpt, and deceive their way toward freedom, the clock ticks down against unforgiving guards, rising suspicions, and the unforgiving currents of San Francisco Bay.

But this time, it’s more than a jailbreak. It’s a psychological chess match between genius and authority, strategy and surveillance, freedom and fate.
