Three women and two men are held in captivity by an anonymous man. They will be tortured and manipulated while they try to find a way out. This mysterious man leads them to think that if they discover what they have in common; he will set them free. He plays with their deepest fears and creates conflicts among the captives. His feeling of power and the pleasure he takes will result in him making a mistake that will changes dramatically the vicious game he was playing. The captives are now in a race against time to escape before it’s too late.

Captives is a high intensity six episodes thriller that explores the effects of captivity, group dynamics under pressure and, more importantly, the fundamental human need for freedom.

Captives is the story of a broken man bent on revenge but also the extraordinary example of resilience, courage, cooperation and sacrifice.
