The jail in the Philippines made famous for a viral Michael Jackson dance video comes under the management of an ex-convict which causes some controversy
The inmates of a Philippine jail make a world-famous viral dance video but controversy erupts when former inmate Marco Toral is placed in charge.
Toral takes the law into his own hands when his TV is stolen. An infamous drug gang leader arrives at the jail, leading to fears for his safety.
As the jail's population swells and critics charge that drugs are traded inside its walls, Toral cracks down. Inmates prepare for family visitation.
The bold escape of an inmate during family visitation causes a media firestorm and political backlash, leaving Toral fearful that he'll lose his job.
After a pair of forced resignations, unwelcome changes come to the jail -- including the cancellation of a beloved program.
