In 202 The Platform made quite an impact on its first release, a strange prison, vertical with many stories, a lift going up and down distributing food, ported to the various prisoners, their status, the levels of their imprisonment.
In this sequel, the audience returns to the prison, to the platform and its foods, focusing on different prisoners and their interactions, but also highlighting hierarchical control, oppression, prisoners banding together, strategies for the food, a buildup to confrontation.
