Plot
The Vertical Self-Management Center is a dystopian prison with a unique structure: 333 floors with a hole in the center. Each day, a platform loaded with food descends through this hole, stopping at each level for two minutes. Prisoners on higher floors have first access to the food, while those on lower levels risk starvation. At the end of each month, prisoners are randomly reassigned to new floors. Before entering, each inmate is interviewed and allowed to bring one personal item.
