The Pros, The Cons and a Screw

The Pros, The Cons and a ScrewT01072522364
When celebrated, controversial singer/songwriter Kieran O'Connell is imprisoned for perjury he rapidly discovers that fame does nobody any favours on the inside. Disregard for the rules of prison, both written and unwritten, soon puts him further at odds with the authorities and inmates alike. His one salvation may be the Education Unit where his presence is begrudgingly sought as a means to make claim to a prison rock group. But will music prove to be the food of love - or feed jealousy and resentment? With a fantastic soundtrack, featuring iconic songs previously recorded by The Beatles, Bob Marley, The Who, The Pretenders, Bruce Springsteen, Graham Parker, Alice Cooper, Snow Patrol and The Stereophonics. Contains strong language.
