Despite the futile attempts of his teacher, the only caring educator in the Center wants to help out and put light on this incident in a country where power determines justice. "In order to reach true authenticity, the cast involves non-actors. Working with real teenagers taken from the catacombs of the city, making them LIVE the anger and the determination to clash with the world that rejected them was the greatest challenge (…). The youngsters’ primordial impulses and intimidating sincerity should |
undoubtedly bring the audience on their side, whatever methods they use." (Vardan Tozija)
