Sometime in the very near future, a young man (Erick Lopez) is wrongfully arrested and plunged into a fully-automated and entirely un-staffed hellscape of a prison. A bitingly tense tech satire from award-winning US filmmaker Kristen "KD" Davila, PLEASE HOLD is as topical (and clever!) as they come. – Mitch Davis
