Nuno Pontes and five inmates join forces to make a daring daylight break from maximum-security Western Penitentiary in Pittsburgh, Pa. On the morning of the escape, they crawl through a tunnel they constructed and then pose as construction workers to walk past an armed guard. They intend to head to Mexico. However, their escape is short-lived. A drug overdose, a dramatic car chase and a tense armed standoff bring all six fugitives back behind bars.
