The Inner Cage
Leonardo Di Costanzo’s atmospheric third fiction feature is a group character study set within a mostly abandoned prison, in which a handful of guards watch over a smattering of inmates as they await a constantly deferred transfer to another prison.
Winner of the 2022 David di Donatello Awards for Best Original Screenplay, with Silvio Orlando taking Best Actor, Leonardo Di Costanzo’s atmospheric third fiction feature is a group character study set within a mostly abandoned prison, in which a handful of guards watch over a smattering of inmates as they await a constantly deferred transfer to another prison. Toni Servillo stars as the guards’ captain, while the inmates have their own equivalent figure in the form of an influential mobster (Orlando). Di Costanzo’s documentary background is strongly felt in his evocative depiction of the prison’s inner workings, among its staff as well as those who are imprisoned there.
