A middle-American retelling of Alan Clarke's gritty 1979 prison drama, SCUM, DOG POUND is a visceral, uncompromising piece of cinema from writer-director Chapiron (SATAN).
Set in a juvenile correction facility, the film sees three new arrivals struggle to keep their noses out of the depravity that surrounds them.
Life behind bars is tougher than they ever could have imagined, especially under the supervision of one of the ward's most seasoned guards.
Packed with stomach-churning authenticity and emotional nuance, DOG POUND is a powerful film that challenges the American prison system without ever shying away from the brutality of teen incarceration.
