Welcome to Colony 8 in Ukraine, where war, corruption, and economic crises have ravaged society. In Colony 8, one section of the prison is particularly notorious for violence, and mayhem: the Wing for Lifers. Here, inmates serving life sentences with no hope for freedom live out the remainder of their days under the toughest circumstances imaginable. With nothing to lose, the lifers represent the biggest threat to the guards, who much exercise constant vigilance--though sometimes, even extreme readiness is not enough.
