The R of the title stands for the young protagonist, Rune, fearlessly played by Pilou Asbèk. Imprisoned for violent assault, he's a cocky, good-looking young man placed in the hardcore ward, where his survival depends on quickly learning the prison's parallel world of rules, honor, and obligations.
