Synopsis
Boy. Dad. Man. A lyrical tussle of will and minds. Boy wants to be bad like the rest. Dad wants the best for the boy. Man wants the boy to do what’s best. The boy’s traditionally-minded father cannot understand why his son does not listen anymore and the counsellor is frustrated he cannot persuade his student to play by his own rules rather than pandering to his peers.
