Synopsis
An ambitious hero dedicates his life to transforming overlooked children into capable individuals, sparking hope amidst their bleak realities. However, the exposure of past ‘cruel and bloody’ performances ignites public outrage, threatening their futures. Ensnared in a web of misguided ‘benevolence’, they stand on the edge of their hard-fought escape route, facing a return to their old life. In this suspenseful tale, the question lingers — where does their ‘way out’ lie now?
