Trapped in a sinister prison known as the Panopticon, Patrick is stripped of his identity to become prisoner 67401. He struggles with why he has been put in prison in the first place as he thinks he's done nothing wrong. He's haunted by a Doctor interested in teaching him a lesson and consoled by Celia, the love of his life. Patrick remains trapped in his cell until he is able to confront the demons of his past and realizes the true nature of his incarceration. Panopticon is an exploration of power relationships, inspired by the designs of 17th century prison reformer Jeremy Bentham and philosopher Michel Foucault.
