About
Imagine the prison of Alcatraz only 10 times worse built on tropical hellish and deadly islands lost to the rest of the world Three tiny castaway islands rise away from the coast of French Guyana in South America The Devils Islands Now buried under an impenetrable jungle lay the lost remains of what had been for a hundred years the most storied convict prison in history There while most of the prisoners faded into oblivion a few became legends Some because they were innocent as in the scandalous Dreyfus Affair some because they somehow escaped the islands of nightmare as did the butterfly Henry Charrière immortalized by Steve McQueen in Papillon Now 50 years after the prison doors slammed shut for the last time we explore whats left of the Devils Islands unbelievably dark and oppressive realm
