CGiii Comment

Based on a true story, the film follows Ewald, who left Austria for Romania several years ago. Now in his 40s, he seeks a fresh start. He breaks up with his girlfriend and moves to a remote part of the country. There, with a group of young boys from the area, he transforms a dilapidated school into a fortress. The children enjoy a new, carefree existence centered around sports and play. But Ewald is forced to confront a truth he has long repressed, one that neither the boys nor the outside world suspect. On the inside he is secretly struggling against his pedophile urges.
