"Isovitis is an intellectual wrongfully convicted due to a judicial error (something like Woody Allen with more myopia). Sensitive and altruistic, he is willing to help every unfortunate person, even if he can't, or cares about elections, even if he doesn't vote. Next to him is Montecristo (a rat with a godfather named Alexandre Dumas and a unique 'county' of the prison), who possesses enviable carefreeness and all the satirical spirit of his creator."
