The Release

Over 60,000 men are released from prison each year. At eight o'clock each day the prison gates open to let loose a stream of men on the world with only a few pounds in their pockets, and little prospect of a job.

Inside Story follows CHARLIE SMITH 'S first few weeks out of prison. It is a time when jobs are unusually scarce, and Smith has no family to shelter him. But he is a man of talent and determination. His ambition is to become established as a commercial designer.

It is a David-and-Goliath situation, as an ex-con, who has spent a third of his life behind bars, attempts to crash the exclusive circle of the advertising industry.
