This is an excellent look at the prison system and consumerism wrapped in an entertaining package. Prisoners can choose to enter a controversial contest that pits them against other prisoners in a fight to the death for a chance a freedom. They have to last 3 years on the circuit and it's all televised to cheering fans and sponsors.
