The actor Etienne succeeds in making a breakthrough for his dream project: to start a theater group in a prison. He wants the prisoners to perform While we wait for Godot. When the show is a resounding success, the extraordinary company is allowed to go on tour outside the prison walls. But can the prisoners behave themselves all the way?
