Etienne, a sometimes unemployed but amiable actor, leads a theatre workshop in a jail, where he assembles an odd cast of inmates to recreate Samuel Beckett’s classic masterpiece Waiting for Godot. Etienne finally has a chance to grow when he is allowed to take the criminals on a tour outside of jail.
