Klass
Special Effects
Joseph es un joven taciturno, introvertido, incompetente en los deportes, distinto, raro. Todo eso hace de él un cabeza de turco ideal para los matones de su instituto. La escalada de humillaciones y el ensañamiento van creciendo mientras la vida de Joseph se vuelve más insoportable. Entonces llega Kaspar, un amigo inesperado, un aliado. Ahora ya no está solo. Ahora son dos y quieren la revancha porque los mansos se han cansado. Porque planean fría y concienzudamente su venganza... Siguiendo la estela de Elephant (Gus Van Sant, 2003) Klass es una reflexión sobre la gestación de la violencia adolescente, una historia que supone una llamada de atención sobre el acoso escolar (bullying) a la vez que, con objetividad, rastrea la crueldad en la adolescencia, sus motivos y las respuestas violentas en situaciones extremas.
