Papillon
In the 1930s, convicted murderer Henri Charrière, known as 'Papillon' for his butterfly chest tattoo, is transported to French Guiana to serve his sentence in a work camp on Devil's Island.
Determined to escape, Papillon forms an unlikely relationship with the frail but notorious forger Louis Dega, who reluctantly joins in the attempt. Despite the harshness of solitary confinement, brutal conditions and constant threats of betrayal, Papillon leads a desperate escape off the island.
