dearh race

The film revolves around the story of a man called Jensen Ames (Jason Statham) who is "a driver in his immature life", lives with his wife and daughter and works hard to make both ends meet. He is falsely accused of his wife's murder and deported to prison for life. In that prison, Warden Claire Henessey (Joan Allen) holds a death contest between prison inmates through a race and broadcasts it live (online) to its viewers, "those who subscribe for a little fee". Jensen is given the role of Frankenstein, "a previous driver who is loved by the audience, but is killed in the race". Jensen agrees to race in order to gain his freedom, which is offered by the warden herself. He takes part in the race but, during it, learns the truth: Henessey killed his wife in order to bring him into the race as Frankenstein so that she could continue her evil game. Jensen, when he becomes aware of this fact, decides to escape from the race and succeeds in escaping with his navigator and one of the inmates by developing a plan.
