What if prison was the only world you knew, and everything else was just a story? The Prisoner and the Chaplain is about two men awaiting an execution. As the hours drain away, the prisoner tells his story to the chaplain. Is it an off-the-cuff confession or a last bid for salvation? As the chaplain listens, he realises a life has many stories, and the prisoner has been many people. But the chaplain has his own story to tell, and now he must tell it to someone who will never be able to repeat it. Each man is guilty in his own way, and their stories have led them to the same room, a room that only one of them will leave. If you had only twelve hours left to live, what would you have to say?
