Overview

Lucas is a new student at a prestigious private school. He thrives, but is at odds with his tyrannical teacher Jon, as he challenges the strict agenda that Jon wants to preserve for everything in the world. When Jon sees that Lucas has an influence on the class' talented girl Caroline, he cannibalizes her and makes her break down. The injustice makes Lucas so angry that he takes up the matter with Principal Helle. The next day, everything seems to be in perfect order, but Lucas has stuck his nose too far forward.
