They clumsily search for drugs, flirt with girls, play video games, and slack off at school. However, when a beautiful new student named Maysaá joins their class, Tamer immediately falls for her and, by association, is drawn into her political activism. Unsure of his own political convictions, Tamer must quickly determine what matters to him and what price he is willing to pay for freedom.Mode of access: World Wide Web.
