about...

Its subject is the school. The educational system, like an industrial machine. The film reminds the importance of the student. Out of his behavior, loneliness, violent reactions, verdict of teachers. In same measure, it is a film about near reality. With each detail defining it. A film about a family tragedy. Touching, off course, terrible in profound sense. And far to be extraordinary because it is slice of each contemporary war. The film propose, in fact, a question - who is the other ? What roots are behind his attitude ? Maybe, the answers are not significant. Only the questions. And the good performances.

Cried my eyes out

This is such a moving short film. It doesn't carve out new ground, but it is well played and directed and with a moving plot that explores what depths lie within this lonely boy.
