I saw this film at the Brussels Film Festival (where I believe it won the best film award). A group of boys attempting, but mostly failing, to take revenge for abuse, the film gently but unerringly exposes their vulnerability and childlike joy as they begin to come to terms with their loss and to grow up. A thoroughly unsentimental film and yet powerfully moving and (surprisingly) very funny too. The best film I've seen so far this year - I thoroughly recommend it.
