“It's the rare contemporary film that's as majestically and gruelingly rigorous in its form as in its thematic interrogations.”~Village Voice

Aroview: Ruban Östlund (THE SQUARE) directs this acute observation of bullying based on true events, in which a group of adolescent boys robbed other children on about 40 occasions using psychological manipulation and role-playing. A biting and fearless portrayal of the race and class-based abuse of power that can occur in an outwardly tolerant and liberal society.
