This is when, and this was really gross and hard to watch in the film. And believe it or not, this makes me want to see 12 years a slave more. So hunger was your gateway drugged to 12 years? I guess so. The dirty protest is when the prisoner said, all right, well, if we're ging to be in here and you're not going to give us any rights, we's not going to bathe.
