n prison, respect can mean much more than pride. It can become part of survival.
This analysis is based on Shot Caller (2017), directed by Ric Roman Waugh and starring Nikolaj Coster-Waldau.
The film shows a brutal environment where every challenge can have consequences. You can’t react to everything, but you also can’t allow everyone to see you as an easy target.
That is what makes this world so dangerous, sometimes you have to defend your respect, but every fight can create an even bigger problem.
