Taglines: Fear can hold you prisoner. Hope can set you free.
Two imprisoned men bond over a number of years, finding solace and eventual redemption through acts of common decency.
Andy Dufresne was convicted of a double murder he did not commit and sent to jail. The place of his life in prison became Shawshank – the legendary prison from which escape is impossible. In prison, Andy faced with the reality that was previously unknown to him, the world in which the rules only force and violence. He was vice president of a large company and used to be guided by the voice of reason, therefore, to adapt to the new conditions extremely difficult.
Framed in the 1940s for the double murder of his wife and her lover, upstanding banker Andy Dufresne begins a new life at the Shawshank prison, where he puts his accounting skills to work for an amoral warden. During his long stretch in prison, Dufresne comes to be admired by the other inmates — including an older prisoner named Red — for his integrity and unquenchable sense of hope.
Dufresne, however, can not save a human or even find a good friend – a prisoner by the name of Red, the man who is able to get anything on the order Redemption inhabitants. Andy orders a portrait of Rita Hayworth and set to work on the stone, as a hobby – it’s the only thing that can somehow distract the person who received a life sentence. Example Andy, who, in spite of everything, remained true to himself and was able to escape, proves that the main thing – in any case not to lose hope.
Chronicles the experiences of a formerly successful banker as a prisoner in the gloomy jailhouse of Shawshank after being found guilty of a crime he did not commit. The film portrays the man’s unique way of dealing with his new, torturous life; along the way he befriends a number of fellow prisoners, most notably a wise long-term inmate named Red.
