Animal Factory

Ron Decker(Edward Furlong) is a 21-year-old who has just been smacked with a lengthy prison sentence for drug trafficking. Not confident that he can get through prison on his own, he turns to hardened criminal and ex-gang leader Earl Copen (Willem Defoe) for guidance and protection. When Earl sees a bit of himself in Ron that's worth saving, an odd relationship between the two men is forged -- one that has serious consequences for them both.
