I remember the movie personally as I used to live in the town depicted in the movie, and in fact, nowadays I'm back there. The movie was made as a docudrama with realistic aspirations about a group of youngsters on the brink of criminal life but not yet there. The story was aimed at showing the real difficulties of the youth movement all those youngsters were members in, when dealing with youth from the "hoods". The actors are mostly kids from the town, none of them had any previous experience in acting. This fact has very strong influence on the film, not always a positive one. Though Ossi Hillel did grow into movies in the local industry, as a result of this film.
The film has it's moments but the intentions of its makers are all too evident in the outcome and that hurts its credibility.
