''Women in Cellblock 9'' (Original title ''Frauen für Zellenblock 9'') is a 1977 Swiss film directed by Spanish director Jesus Franco, starring Howard Vernon and Karine Gambier. Its main theme is women in prison. Unlike most of Franco's work this remains banned in the United Kingdom due to large amounts of sexual violence, and as one of the lead actresses in many of the sex scenes was 16 at the time the film was made. The film was rejected by the British Board of Film Classification when submitted in 2004 and has since not been successfully appealed. 〔(BBFC website - WOMEN IN CELLBLOCK 9, Rejected 24 February,2004. )〕 ==Story== The film is set in a South American jungle prison during a revolution. Initially, the camp commander and the prison physician, Dr. Costa, wait for a few guards on a truck. On board are six young women. Three of them were arrested on suspicion of revolutionary activities, the other three are made available to the guards to be raped. The three detainees, Karin, Barbara, and Aida, can be found shortly thereafter, naked and chained in a standing position, in the notorious cellblock 9. Gradually, they are presented to the "interrogation", which is supported by the doctor through various tortures and treacherous. Barbara and Aida resist the torture and remain silent, Karin breaks down under the torture, and some revolutionaries denounced the (unnamed) city. In the meantime, the young indigenous student Marie also ends up in the cellblock. Allegedly propaganda material was found on her by the insurgents. Their torture was to spend three days without food and water in a single cell. She was then taken to dinner with the commander of the doctor, where they have oral sex in order to then get a little sip of salty Champagne. After the four women in cellblock 9 again are forging among themselves, they devise a plan to contact their contacts in the capital. The quartet manages to distract the guard to knock him out and flee with his rifle. Shortly after leaving the cellblock Aida is killed in a gunfight with another guard who is also killed. The other three flee into the jungle, where Barbara has been shot and they progress slowly. They make it to an old temple, where they feel safe and remove the bullet from Barbara's shoulder. Karin and Marie go into the jungle to look for food, but the guards find their trail and meets them at the temple. As Barbara is killed, the other two, alerted by her screams, run back to the temple and are suddenly confronted by the camp commander and the doctor (surrounded by prison guards). In a last desperate action Karin attempts to steal the commander's pistol. When she fails to pull the trigger, the commander gives the order to fire and the last two prisoners are struck down on the spot. With the desecration of the corpses, the film ends. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Women in Cellblock 9」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
