Description:

Asura throws audiences into the heart of Jungae Prison, a formidable institution where female inmates are gathered. The fragile peace is brutally shattered when a group of notorious villains, each driven by intensely different and often conflicting desires, is introduced into the compound. This explosive arrival immediately ignites a full-scale rebellion within the prison's confining walls.

As the new inmates clash, their individual ambitions fuel a desperate fight for control, not only against the oppressive prison system but also amongst themselves and the established inmate hierarchy. Survival becomes the ultimate prize in this chaotic struggle. The film powerfully explores the raw depths of human desperation and ambition as Jungae Prison transforms into a lawless battleground. Alliances are forged and broken in a relentless uprising, revealing the true "Asura" within each participant as primal instincts take over.
