Role-playing games and amateur children gangs in Gothenburg, in a cold but impressive observation of violent human behavior, which emerged from the director's extensive research into real incidents of organized bullying and his personal interviews with victims and perpetrators.

Synopsis

In central Gothenburg, Sweden, a group of 12 to 14 year old boys committed about 40 robberies against other children between 2006 and 2008. The robbers used an elaborate plan called the "little brother trick", which involved advanced role-playing and gang rhetoric instead of physical violence.
