Escape From Pretoria tells the gripping story of two political prisoners, Tim Jenkin and Stephen Lee, who are incarcerated in Pretoria Central Prison during the height of apartheid in South Africa. Both men are white South Africans and members of the African National Congress (ANC), a political organization fighting against the oppressive regime.

Frustrated by their imprisonment and driven by their unwavering commitment to the anti-apartheid cause, Tim and Stephen concoct an audacious plan to escape from the heavily guarded prison. Using their ingenuity, they begin to meticulously craft handmade wooden keys that can unlock the doors of their cells.

As they secretly distribute the keys among fellow political prisoners, the race against time intensifies. The prison authorities grow suspicious of Tim and Stephen's activities, leading to increased surveillance and scrutiny. With every passing day, the risk of being caught and the consequences that would follow become more severe.

Tim's girlfriend and fellow activist, Alex, also becomes an integral part of the escape plan. She helps them gather crucial information and provide outside assistance with a network of sympathetic contacts. Together, they must navigate the dangerous maze of oppression, deception, and psychological warfare constructed by the prison authorities.

Escape From Pretoria is not just a tale of a daring escape but also a testament to the resilience and determination of those fighting for freedom and justice. It highlights the oppressive conditions and racial discrimination faced by political prisoners under apartheid, as well as the unwavering spirit of resistance against such injustices.

The movie follows Tim, Stephen, and Alex as they face numerous challenges, setbacks, and close calls in their plan to break free from Pretoria Prison. Their story is an embodiment of the indomitable human spirit and the lengths individuals will go to fight for what they believe in.
