[Introduction]
Two boys and a girl attempt to rescue the class bully after he is kidnapped right before their eyes in this road movie. The children's hesitation and dynamism, captured in long takes utilizing mobile camerawork, leave an indelible impression, and while it frequently skirts the edges of failure, it integrates a number of miraculous moments into a singular package that has come to be viewed as representative of SOMAI's early work.
