Yıl 2022. Eski bir Deniz Piyadesi Kaptanı olan John Robbins (Ray Liotta), üstünü öldürdüğü için hüküm giymiş ve Gardiyan (Michael Lerner) tarafından yönetilen gizli ve uzak bir hapishane adasına sürgün edilmiştir. En tehliklei suçlularının yaşadığı bu geleceğin hapishanesinde Robbins, doğanın ve diğer mahkumların insafına terk edilir. Adanın iki gruba bölündüğünü keşfeder: Acımasız ve kan dökücü Marek (Stuart Wilson) tarafından yönetilen Outsiderlar; ve iradeli, merhametli Baba (Lance Henriksen) tarafından yönetilen Insiderlar. Robbins, herhangi bir gruba katılmakla ilgilenmez; tek amacı, kaçışın imkansız olduğu bu adadan kurtulmaktır. Bu amaçla, Outsiderlar'dan güçlü ve yıkıcı bir silah çalar ve iki kamp arasında büyük bir savaş başlatır. Artık kanlı çatışmalar, Robbins'in özgürlüğü tekrar düşünebilmesinden önce birçok can alacaktır. Doğanın insan kadar ölümcül olabildiği bu adada mahsur kalan Robbins'i hayatta tutan tek bir düşünce vardır: Kaçmak... kaçmak... kaçmak.

GBH was a seven-part British television drama written by Alan Bleasdale shown in the summer of 1991 on Channel 4. The protagonists were Michael Murray, the Militant tendency-supporting Labour leader of a city council in the North of England and Jim Nelson, the headmaster of a school for disturbed children. The series was controversial partly because Murray appeared to be based on Derek Hatton, former Deputy Leader of Liverpool City Council — in an interview in the G.B.H. DVD Bleasdale recounts an accidental meeting with Hatton before the series, who indicates that he has caught wind of Bleasdale's intentions but does not mind as long as the actor playing him is "handsome". In normal parlance, the initials "GBH" refer to the criminal charge of grievous bodily harm - however, the actual intent of the letters is that it is supposed to stand for Great British Holiday.
