Contents/Summary

Summary
The film explores the long term effects of youth incarceration with this followup to the Hungarian documentary Bebukottak (The Fallen, 1985) by András Monory Mész. Bebukottak scrutinized the conditions experienced by six teenagers after a one-time mistake lands them in one of Hungary’s harshest prisons. The filmmaker selects three of the original characters for his documentary: a man with a large family who seems so placid that it would be plausible to think he was convicted wrongly; a troubled vagabond who reveals his fragile nature between bouts of volatility; and a disturbed yet terrifyingly rational man who philosophizes humanity. Every criminal is different while the judicial system is the same.
