A harrowing institutional critique that traps an innocent teenager in a corrupt, dehumanizing system, exploring the machinery of injustice with urgency and moral weight.
Neto is a middle class teenager living a normal life. After his father finds a marijuana cigarette on his pocket, he is sent to a mental institution, where he gets to know a completely absurd and inhumane reality in which people are devoured by a corrupt and cruel system.
