When he gets the job of prison warden in Wellington, an American man moves his family to New Zealand. Unbeknown to him, his daughter embarks upon an affair with a prisoner. (Source: IMDb; www.imdb.com/title/tt0082947/.)

Filmed in Auckland and starring Tatum O’Neil, Colin Friers, David Hemmings and Bruno Lawrence, PRISONERS was intended for 1981 release. A financial dispute was allegedly the reason for the shelving of the completed film. It remains unreleased.
