Screwed stars James D'Arcy (W.E, Master & Commander) as former squaddie turned prison officer, Sam Norwood, and BAFTA Award winning actor Noel Clarke (Kidulthood, 4.3.2.1) as prisoner Truman. The cast features some of the UK's most established acting talent: Frank Harper (The Football Factory), Jamie Foreman (Layer Cake), Andrew Shim (This Is England) and Kate Magowan (Stardust). Screwed is directed by Reg Traviss (Psychosis, Joy Division).
Fresh from a traumatic tour of Iraq, Sam Norwood (James D'Arcy) finds himself forced to take a job as a Prison Officer in one of her Majesty's most brutal institutions. On the inside he learns the ropes from his colleagues, a bunch of hardened 'screws', but his life begins to spiral out of control as he drinks and takes drugs to help him deal with the stresses and strains of the job and his past. As he nears rock-bottom, he is unprepared to learn the hardest lesson of all: that the screws are often as corrupt as the criminals they keep. The film is based on the experiences of former prison guard Ronnie Thompson, who spent seven years working in some of the UK's most dangerous prisons.
