Rebellious, fourteen-year-old Wolfgang is pushed off to the youth care home of Freistatt social welfare district in 1968. Here he should be “educated” to become a decent boy.

But how long can he still manage to resist the system of violence and oppression without brutalizing himself?
A movie based on true stories, about the merciless fight of a boy to save the last bit of humanity and dignity in an oppressive system of society.
