After the riot...after the killings...after the lockdown...after the hate...there is one dream left for the Emerald City prisoners at Oswald State Penitentiary: the dream of escaping it--alive or dead. HBO presents Season Two of this acclaimed drama series that focuses on an experimental 'prison within a prison' called Emerald City, the site of a deadly riot climaxing the first season. Despite a renewed rehab commitment by its creator, Tim McManus, Em City and its congregation of colorful--and highly volatile--inmates remains steeped in corruption, violence and racism--as well as the desire among inmates to escape prison realities by any means necessary.
