1997. New York City is a walled, maximum security prison. Breaking out is impossible. Breaking in is insane.

In a world ravaged by crime, the entire island of Manhattan has been converted into a walled prison where brutal prisoners roam free. After the US president crash-lands inside, war hero Snake Plissken has 24 hours to bring him back.
