Who is Shawshank in The Shawshank Redemption?

Shawshank's name is not a person's name, but the name of a prison. It is called "The Shawshank Redemption" because the protagonist finished redemption in Shawshank prison and finally escaped from the prison.

Introduction to the movie plot:

In the late 1940s, Andy (played by Tim Robbins Tim Robbins), a young banker with small achievements, was jailed on suspicion of killing his wife and her lover. In this prison named Shawshank, hope seems illusory, and the punishment of life imprisonment undoubtedly doomed Andy's gloomy and desperate life.

Soon after, Andy tries to get close to Red (Morgan Freeman Morgan Freeman), a prestigious prisoner, and ask him to get himself a small hammer. Taking this as an opportunity, the two gradually became familiar with each other, and Andy seemed to find his own way to survive in a prison where evil was mixed with black and white.

He used his professional knowledge to help prison management evade taxes and launder money, and at the same time, he was gradually treated with courtesy among prisoners by virtue of his association with Rhett. On the surface, like Rhett, he has changed from hating high walls to being calm, but his desire for freedom still urges him to move towards his hopes and goals. And the truth of his crime seems to make it a step forward.
