You're not in a prison. Much in the story is left to your imagination, but I can tell you this: you are very much a "free" agent in this universe. However, your value is constantly under thorough investigation to see if you shall remain a human, or be deemed a numan.
Hopefully Episode 2 will bring more answer as to what exactly this universe is, how it works, and how you can actually fight back.
