Overview

The stories of boys imprisoned for theft, robbery, and murder are intertwined with excerpts from religion classes, during which a priest discusses the Ten Commandments. Against the backdrop of a conversation about duties and universal norms derived from the Decalogue, a picture of the lives of these teenage criminals in freedom emerges. Theft, robbery, alcohol, and drugs are their everyday reality. They attack elderly people and men in their prime, usually working in groups to increase their chances of success.
