The prisoners are watching images cast on the wall with fire blazing above and behind them. They cannot grasp true reality‚ which are shadows intentionally made by men. They were forced to have one idea; and if anyone tried to lead a prisoner to the light‚ they would be killed. A prisoner is soon set free
