Search For The Meaning of Life Itself
In the depths of the countryside lies a school where eight boys are enrolled. Banking on the promises of education and rehabilitation, they struggle to come to terms with the situation of brutality and cruelty they are in. As a plan to escape moulds, and the levels of cruelty increase, the boys try to search for something to grasp, maybe a way out, or the meaning of life itself.
