Synopsis
Peter recounts his time at a boarding school for 'difficult children,' an institution that, despite its noble ideals, functions as a brutal factory for destroying human spirit through constant surveillance, conformity, and control. This narrative, rich with autobiographical elements, explores the psychological impact of such an environment on a young boy.
