Life on the Outpost is a story about one man’s struggle against an increasingly oppressive government. It’s a dark period in one nation’s history, when its leaders secretly decide to drain the State Treasury. A police “clamp-down” on society accompanies the looting process, capturing innocent people in their net. One man, a translator by profession, observes the changes taking place, yet remains silent until he is falsely arrested on a misdemeanor charge of public intoxication. The experience inside the prison’s brutal system transforms the meek translator into a violent revolutionary, hell-bent on single-handedly destroying the corrupt government system.Tags
