Bullet Collector

The trauma of a 14-year-old boy, struggling to cope with a terrible home life with an angry mother and stepfather. He is plagued by brutal attacks from bullies, and his life becomes even more nightmarish after he is sent to a hellish reform school. Losing himself in a fantasy where he is loved by a girlfriend and able to beat his oppressors, he finds his situation continually shocking him back to a different life. Is he just a timid teen destined for abuse, or can he fend off his attackers?

My take

A raw, unflinching look at adolescent trauma and survival. This is heavy viewing for those ready to sit with difficult truths about abuse, resilience, and the fragile line between reality and escape.
