The notion that male and female inmates can have relationships is utterly fascinating. It just goes to show that no matter what constraints you put on them, people will find a way.

José María Cabral’s arresting drama WOODPECKERS could be called love in a pressure cooker, but that would be understating its vivid textures and palpable vitality.

Moments are rousing - especially as Manaury starts to suspect their affair - but we're not given quite enough (particularly from the aloof Julián) for a memorable romance.

Product Description:
A petty thief (Jean Jean) endures hardships and humiliations while serving time in a Dominican prison for stealing a motorcycle. Using a complex sign language called "woodpecking," he serves as a go-between for a violent inmate (Ramón Emilio Candelario) and the latter's girlfriend (Judith Rodriguez Perez) at a nearby women's prison. However, both the thief and the girlfriend's lives are endangered when they fall in love. José María Cabral wrote and directed this prison drama, which co-stars Carlota Carretero and Mario Nunez.
