The System

When a young soldier (Tyrese Gibson), newly returned from war, gets caught up in a drug bust, he is recruited by the authorities to go undercover in a notoriously dangerous prison to investigate what is really going on behind the scenes. When he discovers an underground prisoner fighting ring, the warden forces him to compete. In order to win his freedom, he must fight to stay alive as well as take down the warden's corrupt system.

Director's Statement

The general idea of The System has been with me since growing up listening to conscious hip- hop groups like Public Enemy, Boogie Down Productions, and X-Clan. Then, in my college years at Howard University, I started to have this idea about making a dent in American institutions built on the enslavement of black people. Around 2015, I read an article about the growing corruption of the private prison system and its modern-day practices of slavery and human exploitation. The article focused on a particular zone of private prisons in Texas that were making prisoners fight to the death. In that story, I found the way in to an interesting action movie premise wrapped in a serious message that we could shine a spotlight on.
