This is more like it. Not the miopic focus on bullying that pervades most school dramas, but a focus instead on how chemicals that your body starts churning out warps your world view and makes rational detachment a struggle. Plus the strange teenage interest in the absurdity of language and the sound words.

I could really relate to the lead character, the obsession and the resolution of the obsession. It didn't matter that the school, with its uniforms and blazers, was a million miles away from my own. An excellent light hearted film about being a schoolboy.
